Successful Extubation and Noninvasive Ventilation in Preterm Infants ≤ 1500g Terms
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating NIPPV, Bubble NCPAP, and 1 other intervention for Respiratory Distress Syndrome In Premature Infants. Completed, enrolled 101 participants.
Detailed Summary
Noninvasive ventilation has been used in preterm newborn with respiratory distress syndrome in an attempt to assist failure extubation. The investigators investigated failure extubation in infants gestational age less than or equal to 34 weeks and weights less than or equal to 1500 grams. Neonates were randomized to noninvasive modalities support. 101 newborns were included in this study in three groups , group 1: Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) (n=36), group 2: Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Bubble (NCPAP bubble) (n=33) and group 3: Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Bubble Ventilator (NCPAP ventilator) (n=32)

Timeline
Interventions
Ventilation with nasal intermittent positive pressure - Newborns randomized to this group underwent NIPPV, the respirators in TIME mode, set with the following settings : 5-6 centimeters of water (cmH2O) pressure positive end expiratory (PEEP); Flow rate of 6-8 liters per minute (L / min); PIP(positive inspiratory pressure) \< 15 centimeters of water (cm H2O) ; respiratory frequency backup (FR) \< 16 bpm; inspiratory time (IT) - 0.30 to 0.33 seconds (adjustable time constant according to the weight and baseline disease)
Bubble NCPAP - Newborns randomized to this group bubble NCPAP, adjusted with the following settings: pressure positive end expiratory (PEEP) 5-6 centimeters of water (cm H2O) and Flow 6-8 liters per minute (L / min), provided through oxygen sources and compressed air (15 liters per minute - L / min), which passes through a heated humidifier through a breathing circuit that goes to the newborn, and from him, for a plastic container (250 milliliters (ml) capacity and 14 centimeters) containing sterile distilled water, which is the bubble.
Ventilator NCPAP - Newborns randomized to this group ventilator NCPAP, of respirators in TIME mode set with the following settings: pressure positive end expiratory (PEEP) 5-6 centimeters of water (cm H2O) and Flow 6-8 liters per minute (L / min).
