Summary

We hypothesize that the success rate for keeping babies extubated (without a breathing tube for assisted mechanical ventilation), defined as the proportion of infants remaining extubated for a minimum of 72 hours, will be equivalent among infants managed with nasal CPAP compared to humidified high flow nasal cannula (HHFNC).

Conditions

  • Respiratory Insufficiency

Interventions

OTHER

Nasal CPAP

Infants randomized to the Standard nasal CPAP via "bubble" or ventilator support at levels of 4-8 cm H2O post extubation

OTHER

Humidified High Flow Nasal Cannula (HHFNC)

HHFNC
