Article Synopsis
- Establishing stable breathing in preterm infants is crucial after birth, and the use of continuous positive airway pressure without a face mask may enhance outcomes in delivery rooms.
- This clinical trial involved 365 mothers at risk of premature delivery, randomly assigning 246 liveborn infants to either a new respiratory support system or a standard T-piece system to assess intubation and mortality rates.
- Results indicated that infants using the new system had a lower intubation or death rate (33.1%) compared to those on standard care (45.1%), demonstrating the new system's effectiveness with a statistically significant adjusted odds ratio of 0.53.
