Nasal CPAP in the delivery room for newborns with extremely low birth weight in a hospital in a developing country

Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility of the use of continuous positive airway pressure installed prophylactically in the delivery room (DR-CPAP), for infants with a birth weight between 500 and 1000 g in settings with limited resources. During 23 months, infants with a birth weight between 500 and 1000 g consecutively received DR-CPAP. A total of 33 infants with low birth weight were enrolled, 16 (48.5%) were females. Only 14 (42.4%) received antenatal corticosteroids and only 2 of thos… Show more

“…This study aimed to compare both methods of noninvasive respiratory support including NHFOV and NCPAP in the treatment of preterm neonates from 28 to 34 weeks of gestational age (GA) with respiratory syndrome. Because newborns with a birth weight less than 1000 grams, were intubated and placed under mechanical ventilation [31,32], we did not enroll these neonates in present study.…”

“…A total of 18 studies were included in the systematic review. These comprised of observational studies without a comparator arm: six studies [29][30][31][32][33][34] , observational studies with a comparator arm: five studies [35][36][37][38][39] and RCTs: seven studies [40][41][42][43][44][45][46] . Eleven (4210 neonates) out of the eighteen studies were synthesized in a meta-analysis.…”

“…In this context, the present study aimed to compare the two non-invasive ventilation methods of NDUOPAP and NCPAP among 148 preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome aged 28 to 34 weeks. Because infants weighing less than 1000 g and under 28 weeks of gestation are usually intubated and undergo mechanical ventilation, they were not included in this study [ 27 , 28 ].…”
