What is PPHN?

Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) is a life-threatening lung condition that can have long-term complications to newborns. PPHN occurs when a newborn can not adapt to breathing outside the womb. This is due to high blood pressure in their lungs which does not allow enough oxygen to enter through their bloodstream.

If your child was born with heart or lung complications,  then you need to call the Law Offices of the Stampfle Law Firm immediately to get help.
