- Objective: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains the most common late morbidity for extremely premature infants. Care of infants with BPD requires a longitudinal approach from the neonatal intensive care unit to ambulatory care though interdisciplinary programs. Current approaches for the development of optimal programs vary among centers.Study design: We conducted a survey of 18 academic centers that are members of the BPD Collaborative, a consortium of institutions with an established interdisciplinary BPD program. We aimed to characterize the approach, composition, and current practices of the interdisciplinary teams in inpatient and outpatient domains.Results: Variations exist among centers, including composition of the interdisciplinary team, whether the team is the primary or consult service, timing of the first team assessment of the patient, frequency and nature of rounds during the hospitalization, and the timing of ambulatory visits postdischarge.Conclusion: Further studies to assess long-term outcomes are needed to optimize interdisciplinary care of infants with severe BPD.Key points: · Care of infants with BPD requires a longitudinal approach from the NICU to ambulatory care.. · Benefits of interdisciplinary care for children have been observed in other chronic conditions.. · Current approaches for the development of optimal interdisciplinary BPD programs vary among centers..

- Importance: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common serious morbidity of preterm birth. Short-term respiratory outcomes for infants with the most severe forms of BPD are highly variable. The mechanisms that explain this variability remain unknown and may be mediated by racial disparities.Objective: To determine the association of maternal race with death and length of hospital stay in a multicenter cohort of infants with severe BPD.Design, setting, and participants: This multicenter cohort study included preterm infants enrolled in the BPD Collaborative registry from January 1, 2015, to July 19, 2021, involving 8 BPD Collaborative centers located in the US. Included patients were born at less than 32 weeks' gestation, had a diagnosis of severe BPD as defined by the 2001 National Institutes of Health Consensus Criteria, and were born to Black or White mothers.Exposures: Maternal race: Black vs White.Main outcomes and measures: Death and length of hospital stay.Results: Among 834 registry infants (median [IQR] gestational age, 25 [24-27] weeks; 492 male infants [59%]) meeting inclusion criteria, the majority were born to White mothers (558 [67%]). Death was observed infrequently in the study cohort (32 [4%]), but Black maternal race was associated with an increased odds of death (adjusted odds ratio, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.2-3.5) after adjusting for center. Black maternal race was also significantly associated with length of hospital stay (adjusted between-group difference, 10 days; 95% CI, 3-17 days).Conclusions and relevance: In a multicenter severe BPD cohort, study results suggest that infants born to Black mothers had increased likelihood of death and increased length of hospital stay compared with infants born to White mothers. Prospective studies are needed to define the sociodemographic mechanisms underlying disparate health outcomes for Black infants with severe BPD.
