Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to learn whether different non-invasive ventilation interfaces can prevent medical device-related nasal pressure injury in preterm infants receiving respiratory support in a neonatal intensive care unit.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Do different non-invasive ventilation interfaces affect how often nasal pressure injury develops?
* Do these interfaces affect the severity of nasal pressure injury and the condition of the nasal skin?

Researchers will compare three types of non-invasive ventilation interfaces (binasal prong, nasal cannula, and nasal mask) to see if one method is more effective in reducing nasal pressure injury.

Participants will:

* Be randomly assigned to one of three groups (binasal prong, nasal cannula, or nasal mask)
* Receive non-invasive ventilation support using the assigned interface for at least 4 days
* Have their nasal skin assessed every 12 hours for 96 hours using standardized scales
* Continue to receive routine care in the neonatal intensive care unit
