Brief Summary
The HIFLO study evaluates the impact of HFNC oxygen therapy on duration of nCPAP therapy, oxygen therapy and hospitalization. The cost of use of CPAP and two HFNC devices are also evaluated.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Duration of exposure to nCPAP, expressed in days in the population of very preterm infants.
The study aim to compare two periods, before and after HFNC implementation. During the first period, in 2011, nCPAP (Infant FlowSiPAP) was used as a first-line non-invasive respiratory support. During the second period, in 2014, the use of HFNC support was established as soon as it was possible instead of nCPAP for prevention of apnea, or after extubation, and sometimes in infants with moderate respiratory distress syndrome treated without surfactant. Demographic characteristics, antenatal data, birth characteristics and neonatal morbidities, non-invasive ventilation oxygen administration and HFNC, postnatal steroid therapy, total duration of hospital stay, will be collected from our electronic standardized patient record in which they are prospectively encoded. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses will be used to evaluate the difference of nCPAP therapy duration between Group 1 and Group 2 after adjustment on potential cofactors.
