NCT01173237

Brief Summary

With the development of the Intubation Surfactant Extubation technic, in which surfactant is administered during a brief intubation followed by immediate extubation, surfactant therapy can be given during nasal continuous positive airway pressure treatment further reducing need for mechanical ventilation. Preterm newborn babies until eight hours of life, with respiratory distress syndrome, will be randomized to standard delivery of surfactant via endotracheal tube airway inserted after premedication for pain with midazolam and remifentanil or to surfactant delivery via Proseal laryngeal mask airway size 1. The intent is to is to compare efficacy and safety of surfactant administration via two different airways and ventilatory approaches.

Study Arms (2)

Tracheal intubation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Endotracheal tube is a airway device used for ventilation or surfactant administration, in preterm babies with SDR surfactant deficiency.

Procedure: Use tracheal intubation for surfactant therapy

Proseal laryngeal mask airway

EXPERIMENTAL

Laryngeal mask airway is a airway device used for ventilation with self-inflating bag or flow-inflating bag. In this study it will be used for surfactant administration, in preterm babies with SDR surfactant deficiency.

Procedure: Use of Proseal laryngeal mask airway for surfactant therapy

Interventions

Surfactant endotracheal administration after tracheal intubation

Also known as: Endotracheal tube
Tracheal intubation

Surfactant use by proseal laryngeal mask airway

Also known as: Laryngeal mask airway
Proseal laryngeal mask airway
