Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate clinical predictors and outcomes for surfactant retreatment in preterm infants.
- A total of 605 very low birth weight infants were analyzed, where 44.5% received surfactant therapy, with 32.2% requiring retreatment, but no clear predictors for retreatment were identified.
- The research found that needing multiple surfactant doses was linked to a higher risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in various subgroups of infants based on weight, age, and health status.
