Brief Summary
This will be a prospective, multi-center, three-arms,parallel, randomized, controlled trial with a superiority design,conducted in China. The investigators conduct this multi-centre, randomized, controlled trial to test the hypothesis that NHFOV is more effective than nCPAP or NIPPV in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in infants with a gestational age of less than 30 weeks or a birth weight of less than 1500g when used as a primary noninvasive ventilation (NIV) mode.

Study Arms (3)
nCPAP
ACTIVE COMPARATORneonates assigned to the nCPAP group will be started on a pressure of 6 cmH2O( adjust range:6-8 cmH2O) by pure CPAP system , with FiO2 (0.21~0.40)adjusted to target SpO2 from 89% to 94%
NIPPV
ACTIVE COMPARATORneonates assigned to the NIPPV group will be started with the following parameters: a) positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 4 cmH2O (can be raised in steps of 1 cmH2O to max 8 cmH2O, according to the oxygenation).b)Peak Inspiratory Pressure (PIP) of15 cmH2O (can be raised in steps of 1 cmH2O to max 25 cmH2O, according to oxygenation,PaCO2 levels and the chest expansion); maximal allowed FiO2 will be 0.40 and SpO2 targets will be 90-95%. c) inspiratory time (IT) will be 0.45 - 0.5 sec (according to clinicians'evaluation of leaks and the appearance of the pressure curve: a small pressure plateau is required and flow may be set accordingly) and rate will be started at30 bpm (can be raised in steps of 5 bpm to max 50 bpm, according to PaCO2 levels).
NHFOV
EXPERIMENTAL\- neonates assigned to NHFOV will be started with the following boundaries, according to available physiological and mechanical data, as suggested elsewhere: a) Paw of 10 cmH2O (can be changed in steps of 1 cmH2O within the range range 5- 16cmH2O); Paw will be titrated (within the range) according to open lung strategy, performing alveolar recruitment. Maximal allowed FiO2 will be 0.40 and SpO2 targets will be 89%-94%. b) frequency of 10Hz(can be changed in steps of 1Hz within the range 8-15Hz). c)Inspiratory time 50% (1:1).\[ d)amplitude 25 cmH2O(can be changed in steps of 5 cmH2O within the range 25-50 cmH2O); amplitude will be titrated according to PaCO2.
