The aim of the present analysis was to investigate the effect of Ambroxol treatment on lung function in newborns who developed BPD. Respiratory function testing (RFT) was performed immediately after extubation and at day 28. Tidal volume (VT) and respiratory frequency (f) were measured during tidal breathing using...

These results indicate that the actual presence of increased vascular permeability and mononuclear infiltrates is not a prerequisite for the development of changed lung functions and tracheal hyperresponsiveness.

The efficacy parameters were symptom scores, bronchodilator use, daily peak expiratory flow rates (PEFR), methacholine hyper-reactivity, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), lung volumes, and airway conductance.
