A member asked:
Is this serious? my baby's on ventilator developed condition called bronchial malasia/bronchomalacia. what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Bronchomalacia may result from an underdevelopment or weakening of the airway wall. The airway then collapses more easily and can cause respiratory symptoms. As the baby grows, the lung will grow and help to minimize the effect of this part of the airway on breathing. PRMG/Peds fax ?s to: 858 259 9689
