Factors Influencing Unit-Level Differences in Prevalence of Prematurity-Associated Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in a European Cohort
Large variability in BPD prevalence exists between European units, which was only partially explained by patient characteristics. Our findings suggest that improving respiratory management for VPT infants could be beneficial for reducing BPD prevalence. The association of unit postnatal corticosteroid use practice with BPD requires further investigation.
