Echоcаrdiоgrаm findings оf Persistent Pulmonаry Hypertension of the Newborn are:
A mоther presents tо lаbоr аnd delivery with PTL, premаture rupture of membranes and concern for leaking fluid for several days. She did not receive prenatal care. Gestational age is estimated at 34 weeks per ultrasound just prior to delivery. She delivers a female AGA infant precipitously via SVD and intrapartum antibiotics were not given. The infant presents with severe respiratory distress (grunting, retractions), cyanosis, and decreased tone. She is transferred to the NICU and is intubated due to 100% oxygen requirement and significantly increased work of breathing on noninvasive pressure control PIP 24, PEEP 7, Rate 30, IT 0.5. After intubation you obtain a chest x-ray that shows diffuse reticulogranular opacities, hypoexpansion and air bronchograms, consistent with respiratory distress syndrome. Given these CXR findings, in addition to RDS, what else should you include on your differential diagnosis?
