secobarbital and Hyaline Membrane Disease

secobarbital has been researched along with Hyaline Membrane Disease in 1 studies

Secobarbital: A barbiturate that is used as a sedative. Secobarbital is reported to have no anti-anxiety activity.
secobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates that is barbituric acid in which the hydrogens at position 5 are substituted by prop-2-en-1-yl and pentan-2-yl groups.

Hyaline Membrane Disease: A respiratory distress syndrome in newborn infants, usually premature infants with insufficient PULMONARY SURFACTANTS. The disease is characterized by the formation of a HYALINE-like membrane lining the terminal respiratory airspaces (PULMONARY ALVEOLI) and subsequent collapse of the lung (PULMONARY ATELECTASIS).
