Respiratory setback associated with extubation failure in extremely preterm infants

Dhruv Gupta et al.

Summary: Extubation failure in preterm infants is associated with a significant setback in respiratory status, with infants requiring several days to achieve pre-extubation respiratory levels after reintubation.

High CPAP vs. NIPPV in preterm neonates - A physiological cross-over study

Amit Mukerji et al.

Summary: High CPAP pressures did not have a negative impact on cardiac output or work of breathing compared to NIPPV at equivalent mean airway pressure levels.

Protocol for a randomised controlled trial comparing two CPAP levels to prevent extubation failure in extremely preterm infants

Anna Madeline Kidman et al.

Summary: Respiratory distress syndrome is a common complication in premature infants, often requiring endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Studies have shown that 60% of extremely preterm infants experience extubation failure and require reintubation. The current trial aims to compare the effects of different CPAP pressures on extubation failure in extremely preterm infants.
