Point prevalence, characteristics and treatment variations for preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia in China: a ‘snapshot’ study
Point prevalence of BPD is remarkably high in China. The prevalence of BPD was lowest according to the NICHD 2018 definition, whereas the NICHD 2001 definition classified most patients with severe BPD. We found infants with BPD have more complications and significant differences in BPD treatments between centres. Efforts to prevent BPD and standardise care are warranted in China.
