There were 17 survivors of severe neonatal respiratory distress treated with IPPV for more than 24 hours (36-520 hrs, mean duration of IPPV 6 days) followed into the second year of life. 11 of these young children were physically and neurologically normal. 3 were developmentally retarded (3 months or more), 2 had neurological defects without mental subnormality. These defects (Hemiplegia and Diplegia) were correlated with low gestational ages (32 and 33 weeks respectively) 1 child was severely defective. This one was treated because of apnea caused by seizures in postmaturity syndrome (44 weeks gestation). The overall incidence of defects was 3/17 (= 17%).
