Question
Does a newborn with white lung suffer from brain hypoxia?
Answer
Premature infants born with respiratory distress syndrome may develop white lung during the treatment with a ventilator. After receiving innovative ventilator treatment, the condition stabilizes. During the stage when a newborn has white lung, there may be a risk of brain hypoxia, depending on the duration of aspiration during the period of respiratory difficulty. Parents should cooperate with the doctor’s treatment to avoid related issues.
