Artificial Pulmonary Surfactant Compositions and Use of the Same

摘要

The artificial pulmonary surfactant composition according to the present invention comprises a lipid mixture system containing no protein or peptide or a protein/peptide-lipid mixture prepared by adding a protein or a peptide to the above lipid mixture system. The artificial pulmonary surfactant composition of this invention is useful for RDS and ARDS as well as for the mitigation or prevention of respiratory insufficiencies caused by pneumonia, respiratory difficulties caused by asthma, etc. and it can be prepared at lower costs.
