Change in early respiratory management of infants born at less than 30 weeks’ gestation in England and Wales: an observational cohort study
In England and Wales, use of non-invasive respiratory support for initial stabilisation has increased among babies born at <30 weeks GA. 48% of those stabilised with non-invasive ventilation required mechanical ventilation in the first week. A higher quality evidence base for interventions that reduce mechanical ventilation could improve respiratory management in this population.
