Abstract Objective To study the effect of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) on neurobehavioral development within one year after birth in preterm infants. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the preterm infants with a gestational age of < 34 weeks who were born from September 2017 to December 2019 and completed the follow-up assessments of neurobehavioral development at the corrected gestational ages of 40 weeks and 3, 6, and 12 months. According to their diagnosis, they were divided into a BPD group with 23 infants and a non-BPD group with 27 infants. The outcome of neurobehavioral development was compared between the two groups at different time points. Results There was no significant difference in the neonatal behavioral neurological assessment score between the BPD and non-BPD groups at the corrected gestational age of 40 weeks (P > 0.05). Based on the Gesell Developmental Scale, compared with the non-BPD group, the BPD group had significantly lower global developmental quotient (DQ) and DQs of fine motor, adaptive behavior, and personal-social behavior at the corrected gestational ages of 3, 6, and 12 months (P < 0.05). For both groups, the DQ of language at the corrected gestational age of 6 months was significantly higher than that at the corrected gestational age of 12 months (P < 0.017), the DQ of personal-social behavior at the corrected gestational age of 6 months was significantly higher than that at the corrected gestational age of 3 months (P < 0.017), and the DQ of adaptive behavior at the corrected gestational age of 12 months was significantly higher than that at the corrected gestational ages of 3 and 6 months (P < 0.017). Based on the BSID-II scale, there were no significant differences in mental development index and psychomotor development index at each time point between the two groups (P > 0.05). The mental development index at the corrected gestational age of 3 months was significantly higher than that at the corrected gestational ages of 6 and 12 months in both groups (P < 0.001). Conclusions Preterm infants with BPD have delayed neurodevelopment within one year after birth compared with those without BPD, which should be taken seriously in clinical practice.
