Surfactant Administration Methods in Preterm Infants With RDS: A Swedish Cohort Study
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate different methods of surfactant administration in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Preterm infants often have immature lungs and a deficiency of surfactant, a substance that helps keep the lungs open and supports oxygen exchange.Surfactant can be delivered to the lungs using different techniques, including INSURE (brief intubation), LISA (via a thin catheter), SALSA (via a laryngeal mask airway), and traditional administration via endotracheal intubation followed by mechanical ventilation. The main question this study aims to answer is:Which method of surfactant administration is associated with better clinical outcomes in preterm infants with RDS?The study will prospectively collect clinical data on infants receiving surfactant as part of standard care, with long-term follow-up using data from the Swedish Neonatal Quality Register. The results are intended to be used to inform the design of a future randomized multicenter study.

Combined Oscillation-Volume guarantEe Study
Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) remains the most common respiratory complication in the early postnatal period among preterm infants born before 32 weeks' gestational age. For this population, implementing lung-protective ventilation strategies is essential to shorten the duration of intubation, reduce the incidence and severity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), lower mortality, and improve overall outcomes. HFOV-VG was first reported in 2015 to be safely applied in neonates. The fundamental principle lies in its ability to stabilize the tidal volume of high-frequency ventilation (VThf), thereby reducing sheer stress from amplitude fluctuations, while simultaneously permitting lower VThf settings to minimize volutrauma. This study aims to evaluate whether HFOV+VG is superior to HFOV in reducing the composite outcome of grade 2-3 BPD or death at 36 weeks' post-menstrual age (PMA).
