Very Early Surfactant Without Mandatory Ventilation in Premature Infants Treated With Early Continuous Positive Airway Pressure: A Randomized, Controlled Trial

Abstract: In premature infants treated with nasal continuous positive airway pressure early after birth, the addition of very early surfactant therapy without mandatory ventilation decreased the need for subsequent mechanical ventilation, decreased the incidence of air-leak syndrome, and seemed to be safe. Reduction in the need for mechanical ventilation is an important outcome when medical resources are limited and may result in less chronic lung disease in both developed and developing countries.

“…21,25 Previous studies using NCPAP as a primary mode of respiratory support or following extubation reported failures requiring intubation or reintubation. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]29 These investigators used different types of nasal interfaces, such as single versus binasal prongs and different CPAP generators like bubble CPAP, infant flow drivers and conventional mechanical ventilators. CPAP failure rates by 3 to 7 days ranged from 19.7 to 80% in these studies.…”

“…En los últimos años se ha acumulado evidencia sobre cómo el apoyo respiratorio con presión positiva continua en la vía aérea (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, CPAP), comparado con el uso de la respiración mecánica asistida convencional, es una alternativa eficaz, no invasiva y de bajo costo que, además, presenta cada vez menos complicaciones, por lo que su uso es cada vez más frecuente para reducir la displasia broncopulmonar, particularmente en países con recursos económicos limitados (2,3).…”
