ERS Monograph: Respiratory Diseases of the Newborn Infant

"In terms of preventing them coming to your clinic, the only thing we can do is focus on the early years." The lasting impact of respiratory health in the early years, pre-birth and even pre-conception forms the focus of earnest and warm discussion in this latest fascinating Monograph podcast. Ian P. Sinha and Jayesh Mahendra Bhatt, Guest Editors of Respiratory Diseases of the Newborn Infant, talk to Sheila Ramjug about what attracted them to the field, the reasons behind the Monograph’s compilation and its importance to non-paediatric respiratory physicians, the impact of socioeconomic status on lung health and the devastating effects of child poverty.
