ABSTRACT
There is a great controversy over the application of corticosteroids in preventing and treating bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD).Prenatal use of corticosteroids may reduce the occurrence of BPD.Intravenous corticosteroids within 1 week after birth can reduce the incidence of BPD.However,in light of the short and long-term adverse reactions,it is not recommended.For premature infants with BPD in high risk,clinicians should weigh the pros and cons and may apply a small dose,short course of corticosteroids for intervention in 1 week after birth.Early inhalation or instilling of corticosteroids may be an effective and safe way to reduce the occurrence of BPD.
