Patient's question:
My daughter was born not long ago. She doesn't eat, drink, or cry, and her breathing has always been like "Hmm... Hmm..." The doctor at the hospital said it might be respiratory distress syndrome in babies. If it is, the treatment involves a single injection costing over 3,000, and she needs to receive three injections in one go. I would like to ask how to treat respiratory distress syndrome in babies?Doctor's answer:
Infant respiratory distress syndrome. Also known as infant respiratory distress syndrome. It refers to the symptoms of progressive respiratory difficulty, problems, and respiratory failure that appear shortly after birth. It is mainly caused by the lack of surfactant in the alveoli, leading to progressive alveolar failure. Infants may develop progressive respiratory difficulty, problems, grunting, cyanosis, and inspiratory inhibition within 4 to 12 hours after birth. Severe cases may lead to respiratory failure. Treatment with pulmonary surfactant is necessary.
