Monitor oxygen status via pulse oximetry is the nursing intervention is the priority for an infant with neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia (chronic lung disease).
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a breathing disorder where an infant's lungs become irritated and do not develop normally. Low weight and pre-mature infants are more prone to the disorder.
There is treatment and intervention available for it but it cannot cure the disorder right away. It focuses on giving the baby good nutrition to help the lungs grow and develop. During this time, infants get breathing and oxygen help so that they can grow and thrive.
Infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia usually gradually improve after 2 to 4 months of supplemental oxygen or assisted ventilation.
