Brief Summary

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

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

Study Groups

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

nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV)

Intervention Type DEVICE

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.

lung ultrasound

Intervention Type DEVICE

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).

nasal continuous positive pressure ventilation group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nasal continuous positive airway pressure NCPAP

Intervention Type DEVICE

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

lung ultrasound

Intervention Type DEVICE

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).

nasal high flow cannula group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nasal humidified heated high flow cannula (NHHHC)

Intervention Type DEVICE

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.
