Objectives: To describe the prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes for neonatal air leak syndrome and its subtypes (pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, pneumopericardium, pulmonary interstitial emphysema, and pneumoperitoneum), evaluate variables associated with the development of air leak, and analyze the national trend of neonatal air leak syndrome in the United States.
Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of neonates was performed using the Kids' Inpatient Database. Univariate and multivariable analyses were used to compare neonates with and without air leak syndrome and its subtypes using the 2016 and 2019 data.
