| Very preterm infants have difficulties establishing effective breathing at birth because their lungs are structurally immature, surfactant-deficient, and not supported by a stiff chest wall. In the past decade, there has been an increased understanding of respiratory physiologic changes during fetal-to-neonatal transition, which could be used to improve respiratory support in the delivery room (DR). This review aims to describe the physiologic changes at birth and how these can be used during respiratory support in the DR. |
