Gentler first breath: new hope for tiniest babies
NCT ID NCT04715373
Summary
This study tested whether giving a lung-soothing medicine called surfactant immediately in the delivery room, using a thin tube instead of a breathing machine, could help extremely premature babies breathe better. It compared this early approach to the standard method of giving the medicine later in the intensive care unit. The goal was to see if the early treatment could reduce the need to put babies on a ventilator in their first critical days.
