Summary

This study looks at two methods of giving surfactant (a medicine that helps lungs work) to premature babies with breathing problems. One method uses a thin tube without a breathing tube, and the other uses a standard breathing tube. Researchers will use lung ultrasound to see which method spreads the medicine more evenly. About 22 babies will take part to help guide future larger studies.
