Pulmonary hypertension in the premature infant population: Analysis of echocardiographic findings and biomarkers.

abstract：:We describe a method for measuring carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DL(CO)) and alveolar volume (V(A)) in sleeping infants, using a single 4-sec breath-hold technique. The breath-hold maneuver is obtained by inducing a respiratory pause of the respiratory system. Several inflations of the respiratory system with ro...
