Transient Transient Tachypnea of New Born of New Born

TRANSIENT TRANSIENT TACHYPNEA OF NEW BORN OF NEW BORN (INFANT)

TTN is a condition exclusive to newborn babies. For a few days following birth, babies with TTN may take more than 60 breathsTrusted Source per minute. Other symptoms include:

  • grunting
  • nasal flaring
  • skin and muscles that appear to be caving in during breaths

However, this rapid breathing usually gets better without treatment after 48 hours.

If a birthing parent delivers an infant before their due date, it makes TTN more likely. However, children of any gestational age might have TTN right after birth. TTN occurs because the newborn lungs experience a delay in clearing fluid, although it’s unclear exactly how this develops.

Possible risk factors include:

  • delivery before 39 weeks of gestation
  • cesarean delivery without labor
  • gestational diabetes in the parent
  • asthma in the birthing parent
  • being small or large for their gestational age
  • perinatal asphyxia, or reduced blood and gas transfer to and from the fetus around the time of birth

TTN is typically a benign condition. Symptoms generally resolve after 12 to 24 hours, but may persist as long as 72 hours in severe cases. Therefore, if symptoms get worse or don’t resolve soon after delivery, a doctor may refer the child to a newborn intensive care unit for oxygen supplementation, monitoring, and treatment.
