Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Program
The interdisciplinary team at the Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Program at Phoenix Children’s provides complete care for babies with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). These babies are often born premature, with lungs that are not fully developed. They often require neonatal intensive care, breathing assistance and other services. Our goal is to provide family-centered care with parents involved in decision-making.
Our team includes professionals who are experienced in working with babies and families affected by BPD, including:
- Cardiologists with specialization in pulmonary hypertension
- Case managers
- Developmental specialist
- Dietitian
- Lactation consultant
- Neonatologists/neonatal nurse practitioners
- Nursing
- Occupational therapist
- Otolaryngologists (ear, nose, throat) — specialists in airway evaluation and treatment, such as tracheostomy placement and care
- Pharmacist
- Physical therapist
- Pulmonologists/nurse practitioners
- Respiratory therapists
- Social workers
- Speech/language pathologist
- Surgeons (gastrostomy tube [G-tube] placement)
- Other consultants as needed
