摘要
Background: Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) to spontaneously breathing preterm infants has been reported to reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation and the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in previous study. The objective of this study was to explore the feasibility and potential benefits of LISA in early preterm infants on nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) compared to conventional endotracheal instillation. @@@ Methods: All infants with respiratory distress born at 28-32 weeks' gestational age from January 2012 to December 2012 (n=90), who were eligible for exogenous pulmonary surfactant (PS) therapy were randomized to receive PS by intubation with an endotracheal tube (Intubation group, n=43), or by intubation using a catheter while on nCPAP (LISA group, n=47). Respiratory indices were recorded every 30 seconds during PS administration, and every 1 hour thereafter for the first day. The rate of mechanical ventilation (MV) in the first 72 hours, mean duration of both MV and nCPAP, mean duration of oxygen requirement and neonatal outcomes were recorded. @@@ Results: PS was successfully administered in 43 (100%) out of 43 babies using the conventional approach and in 46 (97%) out of 47 babies using LISA. The duration of both MV and nCPAP was significantly shorter in LISA group, when compared with intubation group. However, there were no significant differences in both the rate of MV in the first 72 hours and mean duration of oxygen requirement. There were also no differences in the mortality or in the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, retinopathy of prematurity and necrotizing enterocolitis, or in the duration of respiratory support. @@@ Conclusions: LISA in spontaneously breathing infants on nCPAP is an alternative therapy for PS delivery, avoiding intubation with an endotracheal tube. The method is feasible and potentially effective, and deserves further clinical trials.
