Extended continuous positive airway pressure (eCPAP) in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for stable preterm infants increases lung volumes. Its effect on growth after discharge is unknown. To assess whether 2-weeks of eCPAP associated with increased alveolar volume (VA) at 6-months corrected age. Randomized controlled trial conducted Oregon Health & Science University. Outpatient assessors unaware treatment assignment. 100 randomized to versus CPAP discontinuation (dCPAP) room air....
Despite major advances in neonatal care, oxygen remains the most commonly used medication intensive care unit (NICU). Supplemental can be life-saving for term and preterm neonates resuscitation period beyond, however use of must judicious as there toxic effects. Newborns experience substantial hemodynamic changes at birth, rapid energy consumption, decreased antioxidant capacity, which requires a delicate balance sufficient while mitigating reactive species causing oxidative stress. In this...
The standard of care for respiratory support preterm infants is nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), yet practices are not standardized. Our aim was to survey CPAP in < 32 weeks gestation among the American Academy Pediatrics Neonatal-Perinatal section. A US, web-based inquired about initiation, management, and discontinuation CPAP, chinstrap use oral feedings on CPAP. 857 providers consented. Regarding criteria discontinue/wean CPAP: 69% specific stability criteria; 22% a...
