Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the therapeutic effects of surfactant made in Iran (Beraksurf) compared to cursorf in treatment of neonates with respiratory syndrome admitted in neonatal intensive care unit in Hafez and Namazi hospital
Design
A randomized clinical trial with parallel two intervention groups (1 and 2), single blinded, randomized, N= 100 patients (each group N= 50) and phase 2. Block randomization will be used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
This research includes preterm neonates, admitted to Hafez or Namazi hospital who need receiving surfactant. Then beraksurf or cursorf is given. Blinding in this research is single-blind and parents do not know their neonate is in which group.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: gestational age less than 37 weeks, the clinical or radiologic signs of respiratory distress syndrome, need Fio2 more than 30% in the first 6hour of life to keep saturation 92-95%. Exclusion criteria: congenital disease or anomalies, receiving two types of surfactant, neonates who need an operation, neonates with congenital heart or lung disease, or abdominal pathology.
Intervention groups
The first group consists of neonates receiving Beraksurf and the second group of neonates receiving Cursorf due to respiratory distress syndrome.
Main outcome variables
Need a ventilator; O2 saturation rate; Sepsis

Randomization description
En In this study, we will use the limited randomization method of block randomization, which is used to balance the number of participants in each study group. The size of the blocks is equal, and we will have 50 participants in each group. For block randomization, the size of the blocks is considered to be five. According to the sample size, 20 blocks will be selected based on a table of random numbers. The individuals are assigned to groups based on the position of the blocks. Random allocation concealment will be done using randomly sealed opaque envelopes. The random allocation sequence was computer-generated (Kendall and Smith's Random Numbers Table) by a statistician who was not a part of the research team. A random number table is a series of digits (0 to 9) arranged randomly in rows and columns, as demonstrated in the small sample below. The table usually contains 5-digit numbers, arranged in rows and columns, for ease of reading. The random allocation sequence was concealed in sealed opaque envelops until the participants were assigned into two groups participants were assigned into two groups
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
The blinding method in this study will be single-blind. The single-blind is used to reduce bias related to the intervention and evaluate the consequences. In this study, samples of the research are blinded (parents know about the study drugs, but they will not be informed about grouping.

Description
Intervention group 1: In this group, 50 neonates with RDS diagnosis will receive intratracheal Beraksurf (produced by Tekzima, Iran) at a dose of 2.5 cc/ kg (200 mg/kg) every 6-12 hours until the Fio2 is less than 30%.
