This webinar will introduce the new BAPM toolkit on strategies aimed at reducing the rates of BPD.  BPD is a major co-morbidity  of prematurity and can be associated with adverse neurodevelopmental and respiratory outcomes continuing into childhood requiring hospital admissions and considerable healthcare support. Collaborative, structured quality improvement initiatives have shown successful reduction of BPD rates. Find out more about best practices, interventions and strategies to reduce the incidence of BPD in your unit.
