Abstract:
Hypotension is a common disease in neonatal intensive care unit,especially for premature infants.The current definition of hypotension in preterm infants is not clear,while how and when to start treatment is controversial.The current treatment,in addition to volume expansion therapy,involves main drugs like dopamine,dobutamine,epinephrine,hydrocortisone,milrinone and so on,whether these drugs can improve the prognosis of premature infants need to be confirmed by more clinical studies.
