Neonatal Respiratory and Clinical Epidemiology Research | Sven Schulzke

This group is a subunit of the Neonatal Research Group at the University Children’s Hospital Basel (UKBB). Research of this group includes methodological and physiological studies of neonatal/infant lung function and autonomic instability of preterm infants, diagnosis and treatment of chronic lung disease of infancy, optimising mechanical ventilation, and clinical trials and meta-analyses of trials in neonates. A major research topic is understanding, diagnosing and preventing effects of autonomic instability and structural immaturity of the lung in preterm infants. This group is closely collaborating with researchers from the Paediatric Pneumology Research Group and the Neuropediatrics Research Group at UKBB.
