Mechanical ventilation is a life-sustaining intervention in premature infants with respiratory difficulties. There is relative consensus when to intubate and provide positive pressure mechanical ventilation in the presence of respiratory failure. In contrast, discontinuation of mechanical ventilation during recovery remains largely subjective. A potential predictive tool for neonatal extubation is the Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT). The efficacy of SBT or other tests used in older patient populations in improving clinical judgment is questionable in the neonatal population with its unique physiology, respiratory mechanics and drive factors. Christiana Care Health System NICU currently uses the SBT as a standard part of neonatal assessment for extubation from mechanical ventilation. Infants in the CCHS NICU are routinely cared for in multiple positions (prone, supine, lateral) throughout the day. What is unknown is the impact of infant positioning on the SBT. An SBT performed in one position may not predict infant respiratory status after extubation in another position. Understanding the impact of infant positioning and work of breathing indices independently or in combination with an SBT will aid clinicians in decision-making and potentially decrease neonatal morbidity (inaccuracy with timing and safety of extubation). This pilot study will begin to explore these clinically relevant factors. Objectives: This pilot study will investigate the (1) role of infant position on SBT score and (2) the relationship of work of breathing indices in reference to the SBT score and infant position.
