Early vs late continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)

Pulmonary air leak defined as pneumothorax · preterm infants with respiratory distress for initial respiratory support

Early showed no clear difference in air leak (pneumothorax) compared with late continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (low certainty).

Early vs late continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age · preterm infants with respiratory distress for initial respiratory support

It is very uncertain whether early changes bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age compared with late continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (very low certainty).

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 supplemental oxygen

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 28 days · preterm infants with respiratory distress for initial respiratory support

It is very uncertain whether CPAP changes bronchopulmonary dysplasia (oxygen dependency at 28 days) compared with supplemental oxygen (very low certainty).
