we had a newborn who was bringing out froathy saliva.Ruled out TEF. Had difficulty in initiation of breastfeeding. took 36 hrs to settle down. My question is when should we investigate these cases?

piperacillin+tazobactum

PPHN could be idiopathic or secondary and leads to increased pulmonary vascular resistance.There is no clear consensus on the management of PPHN. The goals of treatment are to improve oxygenation, reduce pulmonary vasoconstriction, maintain systemic Blood pressure and perfusion and pulmonary vasodilator therapy. How do you manage a term newborn baby with PPHN in your institution? Please note that multiple options/replies can be ticked.
