Does The Surfactant Administration by Aerosolization of Respiratory Distress Syndrome effective in Spontaneously Breathing Premature Infants ? Endotracheal bolus application of natural surfactant has been shown to be an effective treatment for idiopathic respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), especially in premature neonates with weeks of pregnancy > 27 week. However, patients are intubated nasotracheal or orotracheal for this form of treatment. This intubation carries potential risks of injuries to the dental lamina, the larynx, and the trachea, bronchopulmonary infections, and fluctuations in cerebral blood flow, intra- and periventricular haemorrhage (1). In addition, many babies with RDS who initially respond to surfactant therapy later develop chronic lung disease (CLD) (2). With this in mind, the investigators attempt to administer surfactant in a more gentle way, i.e. by nebulization. Administration by aerosol during spontaneous respiration is less traumatic and avoids intubation with the accompanying mechanical and infectious risks and pathophysiological effects.
