Preterm delivery and Lung Development

Lung development must continue for survival of the very low birth weight infant after preterm delivery at 26 weeks. Antenatal infection/inflammation associated with chorioamnionitis can modulate lung development, as can postnatal causes of inflammation such as mechanical ventilation, supplemental oxygen, or infection. The stages of lung development are modified from Burri [1].
