Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs supplemental oxygen

Treatment failure (death or use of additional ventilatory support) · preterm infants with respiratory distress for initial respiratory support

It is very uncertain whether CPAP changes treatment failure (death or use of additional ventilatory support) compared with supplemental oxygen (very low certainty).

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs nasal ventilation (NIPPV or NHFV)

Duration of tachypnea, defined as hours with respiratory rate greater than 60 breaths per minute · patients with the management of transient tachypnea of the newborn

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs supportive treatment

Change in respiratory rate at 20 minutes · children with acute bronchiolitis

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) showed no clear difference in mean change in respiratory rate (breaths/min) compared with supportive treatment (low certainty).

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs nasal ventilation (NIPPV or NHFV)

Need for mechanical ventilation · patients with the management of transient tachypnea of the newborn

It is very uncertain whether CPAP changes need for mechanical ventilation ‒NIPPV versus CPAP compared with nasal ventilation (NIPPV or NHFV) (very low certainty).

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs nasal ventilation (NIPPV or NHFV)

Pneumothorax · patients with the management of transient tachypnea of the newborn

It is very uncertain whether CPAP changes pneumothorax ‒NIPPV versus CPAP compared with nasal ventilation (NIPPV or NHFV) (very low certainty).
