Protocol summary

Summary
In a randomized clinical trial, 60 preterm neonates with gestation age 29-37 weeks who were diagnosed with respiratory distress syndrome and require surfactant treatment, will be randomly allocated to two groups. Thirty neonates receive surfactant via endotracheal tube and 30 via laryngeal mask. Then patients will be extubated. We follow patients with respect to the need for FiO2 to maintain normal O2 saturation and need for intubation and assisted ventilation during the first 3 days after surfactant therapy.

Primary outcomes

1

Description
The requirement for mechanical ventilation
Timepoint
One hour after surfactant treatment
Method of measurement
PH<7.15, PCO2>60, PO2<50 on the Arterial blood gas analysis

Secondary outcomes

1

Description
requirement for a second dose of surfactant
Timepoint
eight hours after surfactant administration
Method of measurement
Redosing was considered if FiO2 was ≥ 60% or if FiO2 was ≥ 30% associated with worsening of RDS clinical signs.

2

Description
Reduced needed FiO2 to maintain adequate oxygenation
Timepoint
Before and one hour after surfactant therapy
Method of measurement
Determination of needed Fio2 in blender and by pulse oxymetry

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: After inserting a size 1 Classic LMA using standard techniques, surfactant 2.5 ml/kg per dose was given in 2-4 aliquots to spontaneously breathing infants, at the distal end of the LMA using a shortened 5 French-feeding catheter.
Category
Treatment - Drugs

2

Description
Control group: INSURE approach was used for surfactant delivery; the neonates were intubated and surfactant 2.5 ml/kg per dose was given via endotracheal tube in 2-4 aliquots.
