Primary outcomePrimary: Need for Endotracheal Ventilation in the First 72 hs of Life — 34; 25 participants — p=<0.05
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that nasal intermittent positive pressure(NIPP), used as a primary mode of ventilation in preterm infants with RDS, will decrease the need for conventional endotracheal ventilation when compared to nasal continuous positive airway pressure.(NCPAP)
