摘要

Objective

Evaluate surfactant therapy and clinical outcomes including length of hospital stay (LOS), CPAP, and mechanical ventilation in late preterm to early term infants.

Study design

A single-center retrospective study of 401 eligible infants 33–38 + 6 weeks. Surfactant administration included INSURE (INtubation-SURfactant-Extubation), LISA (Less Invasive Surfactant Administration), and endotracheal with prolonged invasive ventilation.

Results

114 (28%) received surfactant. Surfactant-treated infants had longer LOS (16 ± 11 vs 12 ± 9 days, p < 0.001) compared to non-treated. Infants who received INSURE/LISA (n = 43) had shorter LOS (14 ± 9 vs 18 ± 12 days, p = 0.04) than endotracheal surfactant with prolonged mechanical ventilation (n = 71). Infants who received INSURE/LISA had similar LOS to non-surfactant-treated infants (14 ± 9 vs 13 ± 9 days, p = 0.47).

Conclusion

Surfactant administration was associated with longer hospitalization compared to non-treated infants. INSURE/LISA shortened LOS compared to surfactant with prolonged ventilation. In late preterm and early term infants that require surfactant for RDS, less invasive methods reduce LOS.
