Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a prevalent chronic lung disease affecting premature infants, leading to long-term respiratory complications, hospital readmissions, and significant financial burden on families and the health care system. BPD is caused by lung injury, making it crucial to focus on methods to minimize lung injury and prevent the transition from respiratory distress syndrome to BPD by following evidence-based respiratory support strategies.

Purpose: This scoping review examines methods for weaning preterm infants off continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and evaluates their effectiveness in maintaining respiratory independence. The review aims to map the existing literature, identify knowledge gaps, and suggest areas for further research to optimize the CPAP weaning process for preterm infants. Additionally, it provides an overview of respiratory distress syndrome and BPD.

Conclusion: Four randomized control trials comparing a combination pair of either sudden, gradual, non-sprinting, and sprinting weaning for premature infants are discussed, emphasizing the need for assessing infant readiness to facilitate successful weaning.

Implications For Practice And Research: Implementing evidence-based interventions consistency and using a stepwise approach can improve patient outcomes, irrespective of the weaning methodology employed.

Introduction And Objectives: Weaning paediatric patients from mechanical ventilation (MV) often results in extubation failure (EF) (14%-22%) and 2% of patients will require tracheostomy (2%).

Methods: We performed an observational study in 115 critically ill patients in whom a novel high-flow CPAP (CPAP-ANRI) system was connected to the tracheal tube during ventilation (CPAP + TI). After extubation, the same system was connected to various interfaces.

Application of the TIDieR checklist to improve the HFNC use in bronchiolitis management.

Eur J Pediatr

December 2024

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Department of Woman's and Child's Health, University Hospital of Padova, Padua, Italy.

Unlabelled: The use of High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) in children with bronchiolitis is globally increased in the last decade, despite the lack of evidence-based and universal guidelines to standardize their application in the clinical practice. In this systematic review, we aimed to analyse the completeness of previous studies on HFNC interventions in children with bronchiolitis using an adapted Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and cohort studies on children younger than 2 years old with a diagnosis of bronchiolitis were included.

The Optiflow™ interface for chronic CPAP in infants.

Sleep Med

January 2025

Pediatric Noninvasive Ventilation and Sleep Unit, AP-HP Necker Hospital, F-75015, Paris, France; Université de Paris Cité, EA 7330 VIFASOM, F-75004, Paris, France.

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is increasingly used in infants. However, the limited number of commercially masks available for infants is challenging. The use of the Optiflow™ nasal cannula (Fisher & Paykel) with a regular CPAP device has been recently reported for chronic CPAP in children, with an objective improvement in polysomnographic events.

Liberation from Respiratory Support in Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia.

J Pediatr

November 2024

Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, and Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, IL; The Children's Hospitals Neonatal Consortium (CHNC); Dover, DE.

Objective: To estimate the association between the mode of respiratory support administered at 36 weeks' post-menstrual age (PMA) with time-to-liberation from respiratory support (LRS) in infants with grade 2/3 bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

Study Design: Daily respiratory support data were abstracted for infants born <32 weeks' gestation with grade 2/3 BPD enrolled in the Children's Hospitals Neonatal Database between 2017 and 2022. The main exposure was the mode of respiratory support received at 36 weeks' PMA: high flow nasal cannula >2 L/min (HFNC), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV), or mechanical ventilation (MV).
