NCT01116921

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this research is to compare the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation in the first seven days of life for infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) on nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) who receive surfactant via a Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) with those who are maintained on nCPAP and do not receive surfactant.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Need for Intubation and Mechanical Ventilation in the First Seven Days of Life.

    "Treatment Failure" criteria were the same for both groups. "Treatment Failure" required two of the following: 1) FiO2 \>40% for longer than 30 minutes (to maintain SaO2 88-92%), 2) PCO2 \>65mmHg on ABG/CBG or \>70 on VBG, or 3) pH\<7.22 on ABG/CBG/VBG or one of the following: 1) recurrent or severe apnea, 2) hemodynamic instability requiring pressors, 3) repeat surfactant dose at appropriate time with FiO2 \>40%, or 4) deemed necessary by medical provider.

    Seven days

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Duration of CPAP Therapy

    During first seven days of life

  • Duration of Oxygen Therapy

    During first seven days of life

  • Incidence of Pulmonary Airleaks

    First 7 days of life

  • Incidence of Severe IVH or PVL

    During hospitalization

  • Incidence of Chronic Lung Disease

    Measured at hospital discharge

Study Arms (2)

nCPAP Control Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Infants in the Control Group were maintained continuously on nasal CPAP 6 cm H2O with no surfactant administered.

Device: Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP)

LMA Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Once proper placement of the LMA was achieved, surfactant (Curosurf®, 2.5 ml/kg, Chiesi USA, Inc., Cary, NC) was administered. The LMA cuff was then deflated, LMA removed and the infant placed back on nasal CPAP 6 cm H2O.

Device: Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP)Device: Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) to deliver surfactantDrug: Surfactants, Pulmonary

Interventions

nCPAP equipment used in the trial will be the standard hospital equipment used in the NICU.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Gestational age at time of enrollment 28 0/7 to 35 6/7 weeks postmenstrual age
  • Age less than or equal to 36 hours old
  • On nCPAP 6 with supplemental oxygen requirement (Fi02 greater than or equal to 30%) for greater than or equal to 30 minutes (to maintain Sa02 between 88-92%)

  • Apgar score \< 5 at 5 minutes of age
