Surfactant decreases pulmonary vascular resistance and increases pulmonary blood flow in the fetal lamb model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia

Introduction: Experiments using animal models of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome have shown a decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) with surfactant replacement, whereas studies with the lamb model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) have demonstrated improvement in oxygenation...
