Filter by:Background: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) or Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) is characterized by pulmonary insufficiency, in preterm neonates and is the major cause of death in preterm. Neurophysiological facilitation of Respiration (NFR) technique produce reflex respiratory movement response, as it involves application of external proprioceptive and tactile stimuli that is known to alter the rate and depth of breathing Aim: This study is being conducted to determine the effectiveness of NFR in preterm neonates diagnosed with RDS. Methods: In this study 30 preterm (1- 8 days) neonates diagnosed with Respiratory Distress Syndrome will be taken and assigned into two groups,Experimental group (n=15) and control group (n=15). Neonates within eight days of birth those born before 37 weeks of gestation, diagnosed with RDS were included in the study. Neonate undergone recent surgery or congenital disorder, or medically unstable will be excluded. Data analysis: Normality of the collected data will be analyzed with either two of the normality test i.e. Shapiro Wilk test and Kolmogorov Smirnov test based on sample size. Demographics characteristic of collected sample will be expressed in a mean standard deviation or median and range based normality. For Between group comparison Independent t test or Mann Whitney U test and for within group comparison paired t test or Wilcoxon singed ranked test will be used.
The current study is a crossover trial, aiming at evaluating the effect of NAVA -NIV compared to Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (PC-NIV) at the same level of peak inspiratory pressure, in terms of: breath-by-breath variability of tidal breathing amplitude, variability of the other breathing patterns; lung mechanics; gas exchange; rate of episodes of apnea; bradycardia and desaturations; respiratory asynchrony and comfort, in preterm infants < 37+0 weeks+days post-menstrual age.
Single-center, randomised controlled, cross-over clinical trial in preterm infants born at gestational age below 34+1/7 weeks receiving supplemental oxygen and respiratory support (continous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or invasive ventilation (IV)). Routine manual control (RMC) of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) will be tested against RMC supported by automatic control (SPOC) with "old"-algorithm and RMC supported by CLAC with "new"-algorithm. The first primary hypothesis is, that the use of the "new" algorithm results in more time within arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range compared to RMC only. The a-priori subordinate hypothesis is, that the new algorithm results in more time within SpO2 target range compared to SPOCold. The second primary hypothesis is, that the use of 2 seconds averaging time of the SpO2 Signal results in more time within arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range compared to the use of 8 seconds averaging interval of the SpO2 signal.
Hyaline membrane disease is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in premature newborns in industrialized countries. For 30 years, the management of the hyaline membranes disease has been transformed by intratracheal administration of exogenous surfactant (Curosurf®) at birth or in the following hours. In order to limit the harmful effects in terms of barotrauma of mechanical ventilation, several methods have been developed over the last decades, aiming at limiting the mechanical ventilation to the profile of non-invasive ventilation: Thus the administration of surfactant has become faster (although invasive) and if possible followed by immediate extubation following the INSURE (INtubation / SURfactant / Extubation) or LISA (Less-Invasive Surfactant Administration) procedure. Given the fragility of the children concerned and their low weight, this invasive gesture has long been carried out without premedication. However, taking into account the pain induced and potential hemodynamic consequences of the gesture, neonatal societies now recommend the use of anesthetic before intubation, with a short duration sedative. Propofol is a general anesthetic that combines these conditions and is widely used in pediatric anesthesia. In that way, since 2016, the invetigators have modified the sedation protocol for intubation in our department and have recommended Propofol as first-line treatment for term and preterm newborn. A lot of study showed its hemodynamic safety in preterms. However, the investigators lack data on the autonomic stress really observed during intubation in this population. The investigators therefore propose to evaluate these physiological data in a non-randomized prospective observational study in premature infants under 33 weeks of gestational amenorrhea (GA), during a sedation protocol for intubation and surfactant administration according the INSURE or LISA technique, with standardized doses of propofol : 1mg/kg for preterm infants with a birthweight less than 1.5kg and 1.5mg/kg for higher birthweight.
The traditional concept believes that the etiology of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is immature development of lung,especially the surfactant synthesis system,and RDS is still one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity in newborns, especially premature infants.In recent years, using pulmonary surfactant replacement therapy (PS treatment) in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a major breakthrough in neonatal medicine.Combined with clinical practice and experience,and through Meta analysis of related randomized controlled trials (RCTs),it confirms that natural surfactant treatment can reduce mortality,the incidence of pulmonary air leaks (pneumothorax and interstitial lung emphysema),and the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or 28-day-old mortality.For RDS in preterm infants whose gestation is <35 weeks ,surfactant replacement therapy is also more effective than in nearly term and full term infants.Therefore, in the analysis of cases of different gestational age groups,the investigators should focus on the study of premature infants cases.Due to less relevant research for using PS treatment to cure newborn RDS in high altitude area,this retrospective study conducts statistics and analysis of recently three-year cases in some hospital of high altitude area,to explore the treatment effect of the high altitude region and the impact of altitude on the treatment.
It will be a randomized controlled trial. There will be two study groups. Study group 1 will be given dexamethasone while study group 2 will be given betamethasone. The control group will be given placebo.
Hyaline membrane disease, now commonly called respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and feeding intolerance, which can lead to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), are two key morbidities found in premature neonates which resulted in high mortality rate in Indonesia. Cochrane meta-analysis proved that antenatal steroid therapy can reduce the morbidity and mortality rate of premature neonates. But there is still different outcomes and severity of disease in preterm newborn receiving the same dose of antenatal steroid therapy. This raises questions whether there are other factors influencing the development and maturity of lung and gut in preterm newborn, aside from steroid therapy. Vitamin A, D and zinc are already known for their function in fetal lung and gut development. To our best of knowledge, no study has evaluated the effect of these vitamins levels on HMD and feeding intolerance in premature neonates. Therefore, the aim of this study want to evaluate the effect of antenatal steroid therapy versus co-administered β-carotene, vitamin D3, zinc and antenatal steroid therapy on the presence and severity of HMD and feeding intolerance in premature neonates.
The objective of the study is to compare the effectiveness of treatment with Non Invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in decreasing the requirement for endotracheal ventilation in neonates with respiratory distress within the first hours of birth.Primary outcome is the non invasive respiratory support failure and the need for intubated ventilatory support during the first 72 hours of life. Randomized control , single center trial. Eighty neonates admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) were randomly allocated to NIPPV and CPAP. Outcomes of respiratory support were observed and information on risk factors were obtained by going through bed head ticket.
Comparing the cardio-respiratory adaptation and differences to non invasive ventilation techniques, nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) non synchronized vs synchronized (SNIPPV) in preterm newborns (gestational age at birth < 32 weeks) at their first approach to non invasive ventilation as first intention (soon after birth) or after extubation.
The present study will mainly aim at investigating the safety, tolerability and efficacy of different escalating single doses administration of nebulised Curosurf®, in preterm neonates with RDS (Respiratory Distress Syndrome) during nCPAP.
