NEURodevelopmental Outcome After Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension Of the Newborn

Overview

Neonatal pulmonary hypertension is a rare but serious condition resulting from a lack of adaptation to extra-uterine life in some newborns. In the short term, the risk of death requires rapid and appropriate management of this transient pathology. In the long term, these newborns present a greater brain vulnerability, a consequence of the pathology itself with cerebral hypoxia but also invasive and aggressive therapies. Although current scientific evidence indicates a correlation with the existence of neurological developmental disorders, the understanding of the long-term neurological outcome of these babies remains poorly documented.
