Brief Summary

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

The aim of the present work is to compare between various modes of non-invasive respiratory support (including NCPAP, NIPPV, and NHFOV) as secondary respiratory support modes in late preterm and term neonates as regards the need for reintubation. Additionally, the study aims at comparing between the three modes concerning the associated morbidity and mortality.

Study Groups

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

Nasal Continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP)

apply continuous positive airway pressure using nasopharyngeal interface. positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP ) used 5-7 cm H2O. Neonates will be supported with NCPAP following extubation.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

NCPAP

Intervention Type DEVICE

Apply nasal continuous positive airway pressure in intubated patients with respiratory distress at time of weaning

Nasal intermittent pressure ventilation (NIPPV)

Neonates will be supported with NIPPV following extubation.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

NIPPV

Intervention Type DEVICE

Apply nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation in intubated patients with respiratory distress at time of weaning

Nasal high frequency ventilation (NHFOV)

Neonates will be supported with NHFOV following extubation. stating mean airway pressure 8 and can reach upto 15 cm H2O Delta pressure used is 20 Frequency 10 HZ

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

NHFOV

Intervention Type DEVICE

Apply nasal high frequency ventilation in intubated patients with respiratory distress at time of weaning

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* The gestational age (GA) is between 34 and 41 weeks.
* Extubation from invasive mechanical ventilation initiated due to RD, irrespective to the cause of RD.

* Major cardiac diseases.
* Presence of cardiovascular instability (sepsis, severe dehydration, severe anemia).
* Neurologically insulted neonates who are unable to take adequate spontaneous breathing.
