Abstract:
Alveolar fluid transport is closely associated with neonatal lung development neonatal respiratory diseases,such as wet lung,pulmonary hyaline membrane disease,pneumonia,which are related with decreased lung fluid transport.This review introduces the characteristics of neonatal pulmonary fluid balance,including lung fluid secretion and absorption equilibrium,list clinical factors which can increase pulmonary fluid,explain important lung fluid transport mechanisms and their regulations.Inhaling beta agonists or glucocorticoid is a viable therapeutic strategy.
