Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Self-inflating Bag  It is a compressible, self-inflating, non-rebreathing silicon bag, which has an inlet through which air and additional O2 is supplied and an outlet through this can be transferred to the patient. The gas enters in the self-expanding bag through one way valve which restricts the flow back from the inlet. When the bag is compressed, the air is pushed forward through the mask in the pharynx or throat which in turn leads to wind pipe and then in the lungs, hence assisting in artificial ventilation 
Intervention  T-piece resuscitator  The T-piece resuscitator, on the other hand, is designed to deliver more controlled and consistent ventilation pressures (both PIP and PEEP) 
 
Inclusion Criteria  
Age From  0.00 Day(s)
Age To  1.00 Day(s)

Details  All the following should be fulfilled for enrolment:
a) Inborn neonates (delivered at NIMS hospital, Jaipur)
b) Gestational age 25 to 34 weeks
c) Neonates that have not cried after birth and after initial steps require positive pressure
ventilation due to apnea/gasping/heart rate less than 100 beats per minute
d) Delivered vaginally, through Cesarean or via assisted delivery 
 
ExclusionCriteria 
Details  Any one of the following
a) Major congenital malformation (antenatally diagnosed or visible at birth)
b) Refusal of consent by parents

Brief Summary  

This study is a randomized, open label, parallel group trial comparing the efficacy of T-piece resuscitator and self-inflating bag in providing positive pressure ventilation to newborns at birth. The study will be conducted on 136 newborns at the department of Neonatology, NIMS Hospital and Medical College, Jaipur, India. The primary outcome measure will the be need for delivery room intubation. The secondary outcomes The secondary outcomes will be the comparision of clinical outcomes in both groups such as -i. Duration of PPV, ii. Time to spontaneous breathing, iii. Time to achieve HR ≥100 bpm , iv. Saturation at 5 minutes of birth etc.
