Summary

The primary objective of this research is to compare the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation in the first seven days of life for infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) on nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) who receive surfactant via a Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) with those who are maintained on nCPAP and do not receive surfactant.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Gestational age at time of enrollment 28 0/7 to 35 6/7 weeks postmenstrual age
  • Age less than or equal to 36 hours old
  • On nCPAP 6 with supplemental oxygen requirement (Fi02 greater than or equal to 30%) for greater than or equal to 30 minutes (to maintain Sa02 between 88-92%)
  • Chest radiograph and clinical presentation consistent with respiratory distress syndrome (tachypnea, retractions, nasal flaring, and/or grunting

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior mechanical ventilation or surfactant administration
  • Major congenital anomaly
  • Abnormality of the airway
  • Respiratory distress secondary to an etiology other than respiratory distress syndrome (pneumothorax, meconium aspiration syndrome, pneumonia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy)
  • Apgar score < 5 at 5 minutes of age
