TREATMENT
Treatment is directed at reversible abnormalities and at minimizing the development of parenchymal lung disease. Respiratory failure develops in some patients, and mechanical ventilation is required. Initially this is particularly valuable during sleep at night, but eventually mechanical ventilation may be required on a continuous basis.
