hyaline membrane disease

MY 18-year-old daughter was born eight weeks premature with hyaline membrane disease.

They have been shown to reduce the morbidity and mortality of hyaline membrane disease.

Infant respiratory distress syndrome, previously known as hyaline membrane disease.

The condition is called hyaline membrane disease.

This can lead directly to respiratory distress syndrome, also called hyaline membrane disease, in the neonate.

Hyaline membrane disease is something we don't want.'

Chest x-rays may resemble hyaline membrane disease.

He specialized in childhood pulmonary diseases, particularly tuberculosis and hyaline membrane disease in the newborn.

Right after his birth, he was transferred to Boston Children's Hospital where he died two days later of hyaline membrane disease.

These tiny patients are at the highest risk for developing hyaline membrane disease, or respiratory-distress syndrome, which is caused by an absence of the surfactant.

Hyaline membrane disease is an older term for IRDS.

The infant's death from hyaline membrane disease, now more commonly called respiratory distress syndrome, helped spark new public awareness of the disease and further research.

The characteristic histopathology seen in babies who die from RDS was the source of the name "hyaline membrane disease".

Their infants are susceptible to a wide range of congenital anomalies - low blood sugar, inadequate calcium levels and a lung disorder called hyaline membrane disease.

For infants mortality, the dreaded disease were congenital abnormalities, dystocia of pregnancy, aspiration pneumonia and hyaline membrane disease.

An unexpected increase in cerebral blood volume (CBV) was observed during mechanical ventilation of a premature infant suffering from hyaline membrane disease.

His lungs were not fully developed, and he died at Boston Children's Hospital of hyaline membrane disease (now known as respiratory distress syndrome) on August 9, 1963.

SIR,- Surfactant treatment is now widely used for the treatment of hyaline membrane disease (HMD) in the preterm infant.

Infant respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), which is a complication of premature birth, also known as hyaline membrane disease (HMD)

Most cases of hyaline membrane disease can be ameliorated or prevented if mothers who are about to deliver prematurely can be given one of a group of hormones glucocorticoids.

Diffuse alveolar damage is associated primarily with ARDS and TRALI in adults, and hyaline membrane disease in neonates.

Thus far, he said, multicenter trials have shown that a synthetic surfactant made by the Burroughs Wellcome Company decreases hyaline membrane disease in premature infants without causing serious side effects.

The Times later reported, "The attending physicians certified to a diagnosis of prematurity and hyaline membrane disease . . . a lung disorder that takes the lives of about half of the 50,000 babies who contract it every year."

His obituary in The New York Times stated that, at that time, all that could be done for a victim of hyaline membrane disease "is to monitor the infant's blood chemistry and to try to keep it near normal levels."
