Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that nasal intermittent positive pressure(NIPP), used as a primary mode of ventilation in preterm infants with RDS, will decrease the need for conventional endotracheal ventilation when compared to nasal continuous positive airway pressure.(NCPAP)

Conditions

  • Prematurity
  • Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Interventions

DEVICE

nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation

Nasal intermittent positive airway pressure will be compared are the nasal continuous positive pressure as an initial ventilatory mode in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome
