摘要

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains a prevalent and complex complication of preterm birth, yet current definitions fail to capture the heterogeneous and evolving nature of the disease. Longitudinal studies reveal persistent pulmonary disease throughout the lifespan. Despite progress in identifying phenotypes, biomarkers to characterize disease endotypes to guide effective and precise therapies remain elusive. Precision medicine approaches, including multicenter deep phenotyping and integration of multi-omic data, are essential to identify meaningful disease subtypes that inform individualized care. This perspective traces the evolution of BPD definitions, outlines their limitations, and presents a path forward focused on collaborative data networks, enriched trial designs, and longitudinal outcome measures. Recognizing BPD and subsequent cardiopulmonary disease related to prematurity as a lifelong disease, not just a NICU outcome, is critical to improving long-term care and developing targeted interventions for this vulnerable population.
