Many premature infants suffer from chronic lung damage and respiratory distress syndrome. Most of these babies grow out of it with the help of certain medications and other treatments. For children who do not grow out of it and suffer from bronchopulmonary dysplasia, our team offers at-home oxygen support and nutrition counseling, as well as a variety of medical treatments.
We work closely with the neonatologists in the intensive care nursery to develop the best treatment plans for when the babies go home with their families.

Lucile Packard Children's Hospital is located in Palo Alto, adjacent to Stanford University Hospital, approximately 20 miles north of San Jose, CA and 40 miles south of San Francisco.
