AB Classic  bronchopulmonary  dysplasia  (BPD)  is  a  neonatal  form  of  chronic  pulmonary  disorder.  BPD  was  solely  defined  as  persistent  oxygen  dependency  up  to  28  days  of  life.  The  severity  of  BPD-related  pulmonary  dysfunction  and  neurodevelopmental  impairment  in  early  childhood  is  more  accurately  predicted  by  an  oxygen  dependence  at  36  weeks’  postmenstrual  age  (PMA)  in  infants  89%)  among  infants  who  had  been  requiring  supplemental  oxygen  during  the  first  28  days  of  life.
