Question

Is neonatal respiratory distress syndrome caused by the baby not developing properly from the start, and is this disease severe?

Answer

Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome is primarily caused by underdeveloped alveoli in the lungs. It is more common in premature babies. The main treatment method is to administer hormone medications to the child to promote alveolar maturation as quickly as possible. The effectiveness of late-stage treatment is crucial for prognosis. Infants diagnosed with respiratory distress syndrome damage typically recover as they grow older. The key to prognosis lies in the effectiveness of the late-stage treatment.
