We report a case of an extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infant presenting with pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) in which we have given surfactant after an acute episode of bleeding with severe intractable hypoxemia. Surfactant replacement therapy showed improvement in Mean Airway Pressure (MAP) and oxygenation indices. Our case suggests that surfactant replacement therapy is useful in PH.
我们报告一例极低出生体重(ELBW)婴儿出现肺出血(PH)的病例,在急性出血发作伴严重顽固性低氧血症后,我们给予了表面活性剂。表面活性剂替代疗法显示平均气道压(MAP)和氧合指数有所改善。我们的病例表明,表面活性剂替代疗法对肺出血有用。
