Premature infants with sBPD are at a high risk of acute decompensation and subsequent cardiopulmonary arrest. A comprehensive determination of the complex phenotypes that contribute to the clinical presentation will help clinicians decipher the phase of care, identify cardiopulmonary compromise earlier and guide targeted therapeutic intervention during acute episodes of deterioration.

ARC events are particularly dangerous as they compromise oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal, potentially leading to cardiopulmonary arrest. Approximately 1 % of NICU admissions experience cardiopulmonary arrest, and ARC is the primary cause of most events. This article provides a comprehensive review of the etiologies of ARC, including anatomical abnormalities, syndromic disorders, airway obstruction, and pulmonary diseases such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia and pneumonia. Management strategies include the use of continuous positive airway pressure, positive pressure ventilation, and advanced interventions like extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in cases of severe respiratory distress. Additionally, quality improvement initiatives aimed at reducing incidents such as unplanned extubations (UE) are discussed, along with emergency responses to ARC, which often require multidisciplinary collaboration and advanced airway management.
