“…In a large observational study, Yang and colleagues found that the risk of death from aspiration, pneumonia, or influenza for individuals with DS was more than seven times that of the general population . Multiple factors contribute to this risk including the high prevalence of congenital airway and lung abnormalities, obstructive sleep apnea, pulmonary hypertension, and dysphagia . Bronchiectasis, structural lung disease, and airway inflammation can be seen in any child with dysphagia and chronic aspiration from a young age .…”

“…Pulmonary hypertension specifically has been reported to occur in over 25% of children with DS. Comorbidities that result in intermittent hypoxia including chronic aspiration increase the likelihood of identifying pulmonary hypertension . Further study of the relationship between chronic aspiration and pulmonary hypertension and their contributions to morbidity and mortality in DS is warranted.…”

“…The natural history and outcome of intervention for CHDs in patients with Down syndrome varies. The presence of a CHD in Down syndrome increases the chance of pulmonary hypertension (Bush et al, 2018) and increases neonatal mortality (Cua, Haque, Santoro, Nicholson, & Backes, 2017). Patients with Down syndrome and single ventricle palliation are at high risk for procedural and long-term mortality (Peterson et al, 2019).…”

“…2 Most importantly, pediatric PH is intrinsically linked to issues of lung growth and development, including many prenatal and early postnatal influences. 7,8,[12][13][14][15][16] Pediatric PH often presents in the immediate neonatal period, which led to its own specific disease classification in Group 1 disease as PPHN. 2 The Pediatric Task Force further emphasized that PPHN represents a syndrome that is composed of specific diseases, ranging from its most common form as a transient disease after birth of term or near-term infants to more severe forms that include diverse developmental lung diseases and specific genetic disorders (Tables 1 and 2).…”
