Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The management of this disease usually includes intubation, surfactant administration and mechanical ventilation in infants less than 1500 grams. However, in patients over this weight, the treatment has not been standardized and depends on the clinical progression of oxygen requirements.
Hypothesis:
\- Early CPAP and selective surfactant administration is an effective treatment for RDS in infants \>1500 g. This could decrease or avoid intubation and surfactant administration.
Comparison(s):
Early surfactant administration, when the FiO2 ≥ 0.4. compared to selective surfactant administration when the arterial to alveolar oxygen tension ratio (a/APO2) is ≤ 0.21.
