PATHOMORPHOLOGY OF THE HEART IN NEWBORN INFANTS WITH RDS SYNDROME
Keywords:
Pathomorphology, heart, newborn infants, RDS syndrome, hypoxia, neonatal cardiology.Abstract
This article delves into the pathomorphology of the heart in newborn infants diagnosed with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS), a common condition in preterm babies marked by breathing difficulties. It explores the structural and functional changes in the heart, linking these alterations to the physiological stress caused by RDS. Drawing on recent clinical studies and autopsy findings, the piece examines how hypoxia and inflammation contribute to cardiac pathology, offering insights into potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic approaches. The discussion aims to enhance understanding of this complex interplay, providing a foundation for improved neonatal care and future research in pediatric cardiology.
