Summary

This study looks at whether using a slightly lower oxygen level (25% instead of 30%) before giving a lung medication called pulmonary surfactant can improve breathing outcomes for very premature babies (born before 32 weeks). About 500 babies will be randomly assigned to one of two oxygen levels. Researchers will track how long babies need breathing machines, oxygen therapy, and whether they need repeat doses of the medication.
