What are the Interventions for Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS)?
RDS is common in preterm infants due to underdeveloped lungs. Treatment includes:
- Surfactant Therapy: Administered directly into the lungs to reduce surface tension and improve oxygenation. - Mechanical Ventilation: Supports breathing in severe cases. - Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP): Provides mild air pressure to keep airways open.
