Abstract
Despite the overall improvement in preterm survival over the last years, more of these survivors have diagnosed with Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). BPD remains one of the most common conditions affecting preterm infants and linked with long-term impact on infant, family, healthcare system, and economy. The BPD incidence rate in Saudi Arabia was underreported in the literature conducted at a local level. The rate fluctuated between 17.7% and 36.5%. However, the national prevalence of BPD is not established yet. Therefore, an overall incidence rate of BPD in Saudi Arabia need to be established and therefore the burden of BPD can be studied and possibly minimised.
