NCT04944108

Brief Summary

This is an unblinded, randomized, controlled, crossover (AB/BA) trial of surfactant treatment with LISA vs. INSURE in a manikin simulating an extremely low birth weight infant. Participants will be level III NICU consultants and residents. Randomization will be performed using a computer-generated random assignment list. The primary outcome measure will be the total time of device positioning. The secondary outcomes will be the success of the first and the participant's satisfaction.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time of device positioning

    Time needed for the correct positioning of the device into the trachea (thin catheter or tracheal tube). In case of failure, total time will be the sum of time of all attempts.

    10 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Success of the procedure at the first attempt

    1 minute

  • Participant's satisfaction

    5 minutes

  • Number of attempts to insert the device in the trachea

    10 minutes

  • Correct depth of the device in the trachea

    10 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Surfactant administration with less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) approach

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will be randomized to administer surfactant in a preterm manikin by using the LISA approach (thin catheter)

Procedure: LISA approach

Surfactant administration with intubation (INSURE) approach

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants will be randomized to administer surfactant in a preterm manikin by using the INSURE approach (tracheal tube)

Procedure: Insure approach

Interventions

LISA approachPROCEDURE

Participants will be randomized to administer surfactant in a preterm manikin by using the LISA approach (thin catheter) or the INSURE approach (tracheal tube)
