目的:出生时极不成熟患儿其成年时肺部结局至今尚待确定。笔者研究了一个以人群为基础的、即将成年的年轻早产儿完整队列,测定其呼吸系统健康状况和肺功能状态。方法:把46名在1982-1985年间出生时孕周≤28周或体重≤1000g的早产儿和同性别的近乎足月产的个体进行对比。对他们进行肺活量测定,作肺容积图描记,用舒喘灵和乙酰胆碱进行支气管舒张试验。 PURPOSE: The lung outcome of adults with very immature birth is yet to be determined. The author studied the complete cohort of young, preterm infants on a population-based basis and measured their respiratory health status and lung function status. METHODS: Forty-six preterm infants who were born at birth between 1982-1985 with gestational weeks ≤28 weeks or body weight ≤1000 g were compared with those of nearly same-term term-offspring of the same sex. They were spirometry, lung volume mapping, bronchodilator test with salbutamol and acetylcholine.
