No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The appropriate pressure and duration needed for sustained lung inflation in preterm infants at risk of respiratory distress syndrome have not been well evaluated. We aim for evaluating two different pressures, 20 and 15 cm H2O, for two different duration, 10 and 20 seconds, during the application of sustained lung inflation in the resuscitation of preterm infants with respiratory distress in the delivery room.
