Sweden: The use of a new respiratory support system versus standard T-piece system with face mask, reduced delivery room intubation in extremely preterm infants, a recent study has found. The new system with low imposed work of breathing and short binasal prongs was found to be safe and feasible. The study findings appear in JAMA Pediatrics. 

The establishment of stable breathing after birth is important for preterm infants. Avoiding face masks and delivering pressure-stable continuous positive airway pressure could be of importance in the delivery room. Considering the importance, Snorri Donaldsson, Department of Neonatology, Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden, and colleagues aimed to determine if the use of a new respiratory support system with low imposed work of breathing and short binasal prongs decrease delivery room intubations or death compared with a standard T-piece system with a face mask.

For this purpose, the researchers conducted an unblinded randomized clinical trial conducted in 7 neonatal intensive care units in 5 European countries from March 2016 to May 2020. The researchers screened mothers threatening preterm delivery before week 28 of gestation. A total of 365 mothers were enrolled, and 250 infants were randomized before birth and 246 liveborn infants were treated. The follow-up period was 72 hours after the intervention. The intervention was providing continuous positive airway pressure for 10 to 30 minutes and positive pressure ventilation, if needed, with the randomized system.

Infants were randomized to receive either the new respiratory support system with short binasal prongs (n = 124 infants) or the standard T-piece system with face mask (n = 122 infants). 

The primary outcome was delivery room intubation or death within 30 minutes of birth.

Of 246 liveborn infants treated, the mean gestational age was 25.9 weeks, and 51.6% were female. 

The study yielded the following findings:

  • 33.1% infants receiving the new respiratory support system were intubated or died in the delivery room compared with 45.1% infants receiving standard care.
  • The adjusted odds ratio was statistically significant after adjusting for stratification variables (adjusted odds ratio, 0.53).
  • No significant differences were seen in secondary outcomes or safety variables.

The researchers concluded, "in our study, using the new respiratory support system when stabilizing extremely preterm infants decreased intubation or death in the DR. Stabilization with a system that has low iWOB and short binasal prongs is safe and feasible."
