Brief Summary  

This study is a randomized, open labelled, parallel group, single-centred trail comparing the safety and efficacy of surfactant administration through laryngeal mask airway and endotracheal tube in preterm neonates more than 30 weeks of gestation. This study was designed based on the hypothesis that Surfactant administration through Laryngeal mask airway will decrease the need for intubation in babies with Respiratory distress syndrome , when compared to standard surfactant administration through endotracheal tube in preterm neonates more than 30 weeks of gestation.

 

 

Primary outcomes measured would be the need for mechanical ventilation within 48 hours of intervention. The secondary outcomes measured would be any need for mechanical ventilation, evaluation of pain scores (Neonatal Infant Pain score), duration of oxygen requirement, rate of pneumothorax, compilations related to the interventions, incidence of Sepsis and mortality rate.
