Prevention of "acute respiratory distress syndrome" in neonates. 2. Improvement of chronic respiratory insufficiency. 3. Prevention of postoperative hypoventilation syndrome. 4. Improvment of respiratoy mechanics in syndromes with hyperelasticity of the lungs. 5. Recovery of permeability of the alveolo-capillary barrier for gases. 6. Compensation of the loss of surface-active substances after endobronchial aspiration of intubated patients.
