Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Lung immaturity is a major issue in neonatal unit.The surfactant administration improves the pulmonary prognosis in premature infants with hyaline membrane disease who escape continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).

This surfactant had been administered at 5h25min of life in Saint Etienne from 2016 to 2019.

Studies suggest that the earlier the surfactant is administered, the more it can reduce the rate of bronchodysplasia and mortality. And some studies show a pulmonary ultrasound could help to administrate the surfactant earlier This is why a new faster strategy for diagnosing preterms needing surfactant will be usefulness and have been done in Saint-Etienne since 2021 thanks to a ultrasound score (LUS).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This current study analyzes the impact of early Lungs Ultrasounds which use a semi-quantitative assessment : the Lung Ultrasound Score (LUS), in preterms \<33 weeks on the time to surfactant administration.

The current hypothesis is that Lung Ultrasound can increase the number of preterms with surfactant replacement within the first 3 hours of life.

This is a prospective, comparative, observational trial between two different cohorts : the last 6 months of 2019 (without Score LUS) versus the first 6 months of 2021 (with Score LUS).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Surfactant administration without using score LUS

It is a retrospective cohort : preterm newborns from august 2019 to december 2019 needed a surfactant administration.

The surfactant was administrated only if the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) \>30% among the Guidelines of 2019

Surfactant administration until 2020

Intervention Type DRUG

Surfactant is administrated if Fi02 \>30% among the Guidelines of 2019

Surfactant administration using score LUS

It is a prospective cohort : preterm newborns from january 2021 to juin 2020 needed a surfactant administration.

The surfactant is administrated if FiO2 \>30% OR if score LUS \>8/18 among the literature

Surfactant administration since 2021

Intervention Type DRUG

Surfactant is administrated if Fi02 \>30% OR if score LUS \>8/18 among the literature
