Overview
History and Symptoms
CDH most often presents in the neonatal period as:[1]
- Cyanosis
- Rapid breathing (tachypnea)
- Shortness of breath (dyspnea)
- Increased work of breathing (labored breathing)[2]
- Lethargy
- Intolerance to feeding due to inadequate oxygenation.
- Adrenal insufficiency: it is a common association with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
