As the frequency of viable low birth weight preterm babies increases, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), one of the most important morbidities in these babies, also increases. Using postnatal steroids to reduce the development of BPD has not been fully enlightened. Besides all prevention strategies for reducing the development of BPD, it is known that steroid therapy used in the 1 week of life could induce negative neuromotor development according to current data. It may be recommended to administer low-dose dexamethasone between 8 and 49 days in infants dependent on mechanical ventilators in the postnatal period. It is seen that the use of hydrocortisone in the early period does not cause negative neuromotor development, but it cannot prevent the development of BPD as much as dexamethasone. All intensive care units must have their steroid protocol for BPD and use steroids in cases when the BPD development scale score is >60-65% and should have a goal of trying to keep the cumulative dose at the lowest level.
