No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In this study, the investigators want to observe how continuous positive airway pressure delivered by two different modalities affects breathing pattern in small preterm infants. Using a specialized feeding tube in the stomach, the investigators can measure and compare how the diaphragm (a large breathing muscle) might be affected by those two modalities.
