Study Summary

This study seeks to determine if standard continuous positive airway pressure, known as CPAP is as effective as a more complicated approach that generates intermittent increases in airway pressure applied to the nostrils via a breathing machine. The latter is known as NIPPV and requires costly equipment to operate. Previous studies did not ensure that the average pressure applied to the lungs was equal and thus did not make for a fair comparison. The investigators believe that when the same average pressure is applied with the two techniques, CPAP is just as effective as NIPPV and may have fewer side effects, such as blowing air into the stomach. Each baby will receive CPAP or NIPPV in a random sequence for a period of 12 hours, followed by 12 hours on the alternate technique.

Interventions

  • OTHER continuous positive airway pressure
  • OTHER nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation
