Track: Neonatal Respiratory Diseases

Neonatal Respiratory Diseases

“Neonatal Respiratory Diseases” this session will explore the latest advancements in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of respiratory diseases in neonates. Key topics will include innovations in respiratory support technologies, strategies for managing common neonatal respiratory conditions, and emerging research on the long-term outcomes of neonatal respiratory interventions. Participants will gain insights into the latest approaches for managing conditions such as respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD), and Neonatal Pneumonia, as well as strategies for optimizing respiratory care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
 
Innovative Respiratory Support Technologies: Discover the latest advancements in respiratory support for neonates, including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), and advanced non-invasive ventilation techniques. These innovations are aimed at improving oxygenation, minimizing lung injury, and enhancing overall respiratory function in critically ill neonates.
 
Management of Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS): Explore the latest strategies for the prevention and management of RDS, including the use of surfactant replacement therapy and antenatal corticosteroids. The session will highlight recent research on optimizing treatment protocols and improving outcomes for preterm infants at risk of RDS.
 
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) Management: Learn about recent advancements in the management of BPD, a common complication of premature birth. Topics will include strategies for reducing the incidence of BPD, including lung-protective ventilation strategies and nutritional support, as well as approaches to managing long-term respiratory complications associated with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia.
 
Neonatal Pneumonia and Infection Control: This segment will cover the latest developments in the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal pneumonia, including the use of targeted antimicrobial therapies and infection control measures within the NICU. Emphasis will be placed on early detection and prevention strategies to reduce the incidence of neonatal infections.
 
Long-Term Outcomes and Follow-Up: Gain insights into the long-term respiratory outcomes of neonates with respiratory diseases, including the impact of early interventions and ongoing follow-up care. The session will discuss strategies for monitoring and managing respiratory health in children who were born with neonatal respiratory conditions.
 
Family-Centered Respiratory Care: Family-centered care approaches are crucial in the management of neonatal respiratory diseases. This session will explore strategies for involving families in the care process, providing education and support to parents, and addressing the emotional impact of managing a neonatal respiratory condition.
