NCT06550219

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of non-invasive ventilation (nIPPV) , (nCPAP), and nasal high flow cannula (NHFC) as a primary mode of ventilation in preterm neonates \<37 gestational week with moderate to severe RD using LUS as regard: I. Primary outcomes: Duration of non-Invasive ventilation. II. Secondary outcomes: Evaluation LUS over the 1 st 7 days of life or weaning from ventilation. Need for intubation and invasive ventilation. Duration of respiratory support. Need for surfactant. Oxygen saturation index and oxygen index. Broncho-pulmonary dysplasia; grade. Duration of hospital stay

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of non-Invasive ventilation (NIV)

    Describe the days of non-invasive ventilation , described in days number.

    First two weeks of life.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Oxygen saturation index (OSI).

    first one weeks of life.

Study Arms (3)

nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation group

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV)Device: lung ultrasound

nasal continuous positive pressure ventilation group

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Nasal continuous positive airway pressure NCPAPDevice: lung ultrasound

nasal high flow cannula group

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Nasal humidified heated high flow cannula (NHHHC)Device: lung ultrasound

Interventions

Patients in this arm will receive humidified heated high flow using Vapotherm device, USA. Stating with 2 L/min flow and increase gradually till 8L/minute, guided by oxygen requirements.

nasal high flow cannula group

Patients in this arm will receive both PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure ) and PIP (peak inspiratory pressure) using SLE 5000/6000 device, UK . Pressures will be adjusted according to severity of respiratory distress.

nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation group

Patients in this arm will receive PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure ), stating from 5 mbar to reach maximally 8 mbar.

nasal continuous positive pressure ventilation group

Lung ultrasound (LUS) machine is a mobile device (Philips HDll XE, USA) with s8-3 probe with a frequency range of 8-3 MHz will be used as ultrasound machine. Throughout the period of non-invasive respiratory support Patient will be monitored by: LUS,Heart rate, Respiratory rate, Mean arterial pressure, Oxygen saturation index, Oxygen index, PaO2, blood gases and Fractional inspired oxygen (Fio2).
