Background: Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) has become the preferred
method of surfactant administration for spontaneously breathing babies on continuous …

The harmful effects of mechanical ventilation (MV) on the preterm lung are well established.
Avoiding MV at birth and stabilization on continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) …

Importance The inclusion of less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) in the care of
preterm infants has been found to be beneficial for respiratory outcomes. Recently, the …

The introduction of exogenous surfactant in the 1980s has resulted in an improved survival
of very preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. Randomized controlled trials …

Objective In the Netherlands, the threshold for offering active treatment for spontaneous birth
was lowered from 25+ 0 to 24+ 0 weeks' gestation in 2010. This study aimed to evaluate the …

Extremely preterm infants frequently require some form of respiratory assistance to facilitate
the cardiopulmonary transition that occurs in the first hours of life. Current resuscitation …

Abstract The INtubation-SURfactant-Extubation (INSURE) procedure is a widely-used
surfactant administration method to treat preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome …

Aim To develop and validate a feasible predictive model for early surfactant treatment in very
preterm infants (VPI) admitted with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Methods Preterm …

Objective There are differences in the adoption rates of less invasive surfactant
administration (LISA) worldwide. We aimed to describe and analyze the process of LISA …
