Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P00-P96).
- Immaturity of the respiratory center, unspecified.
Respiratory system (J00-J99)
- Obstruction of the airway, such as glottic edema (swelling of the laryngeal lid).
- Pulmonary edema (accumulation of water in the lungs).
- Pneumothorax – air in the gap between the lung and pleura where there is normally no air; leads to pulmonary collapse
- Status asthmaticus – extreme form of asthma attack with persistent severe symptoms over a period of 24 hours.
Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E90).
- Cystic fibrosis (ZF) – genetic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance characterized by the production of secretions in various organs that need to be tamed.
Cardiovascular system (I00-I99).

Infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99).

Psyche – nervous system (F00-F99; G00-G99).
