Summary

This is a randomized trial to determine if a visible respiratory function monitor (RFM) displaying realtime measurements of delivered inflations improves clinical providers ability to perform positive pressure ventilation (PPV) within a pre-defined target tidal volume in preterm infants after birth.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Gestational age (GA) 24 - 27 6/7 weeks at birth, by best obstetrical
  • Receive positive pressure ventilation during delivery room resuscitation

Exclusion Criteria

  • Known major anomalies including that may affect measured cardiorespiratory parameters: congenital diaphragmatic hernia, trachea-oesophageal fistula, cyanotic heart disease, pulmonary hypoplasia
  • RFM not available during resuscitation
