A study looked at 262 very premature babies diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension who were given inhaled nitric oxide. For babies whose pulmonary hypertension was evident in the first 72 hours, those who responded to the inhaled nitric oxide had better survival. For babies whose pulmonary hypertension happened after 72 hours, the role of inhaled nitric oxide was not clear.
