The updates includes risk factors of preterm births,the standardized use of prenatal glucocorticoids protocol,the evidence-based delivery room management and the early application of protective pulmonary ventilation after birth;pulmonary surfactant administration as the crucial treatment for RDS;the incidence chronic lung disease can be reduced by non-invasive respiratory support. Prenatal glucocorticoids use and caffeine administration can significantly shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation. In addition,good temperature control,precise fluid and nutrition management,perfusion maintenance and cautious antibiotic use can help improve the outcome of preterm births.
