pubmed:abstractText
Chronic lung disease (CLD) remains an important cause of mortality and morbidity in preterm infants despite the administration of antenatal corticosteroids, surfactant replacement therapy and other advances in neonatal intensive care. There is increasing evidence from cellular and biochemical research that inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of CLD. Thus, interventions aimed at reducing or modulating the inflammatory process may reduce the incidence or severity of CLD. Theoretically, the use of inhaled corticosteroids may allow for beneficial effects on the pulmonary system without concomitant high systemic concentrations and less risk of adverse effects.
