Summary

The optimal post-extubation pressure level on non-invasive respiratory support modes - irrespective of the choice of the specific non-invasive mode - that optimizes extubation success and improves clinical outcomes remains unknown.

The investigators aim to determine the optimal initial non-invasive pressure support level post-extubation in preterm neonates, in relation to the pre-extubation measured mean airway pressures (Paw). The hypothesis is that use of higher pressures will lead to fewer re-intubations.

This will be a prospective comparative effectiveness study across participating tertiary NICUs across Canada. Centres will self-select whether to use Higher or Equal/Lower pressure levels as well as the initial post-extubation mode (NIPPV or CPAP) for the study duration. Only the first eligible extubation will be included for analysis. Eligible patients \<28 weeks' gestational age at birth undergoing an eligible extubation (from a mean airway pressure \</= 13 cmH2O) will be included. The primary outcome will be re-intubation within 7 days. Secondary outcomes will include other neonatal morbidities.
