Clinical Trial: Nasal Intermittent Positive-Pressure Ventilation for Twin Infants With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: Nasal Intermittent Positive-Pressure Ventilation vs Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure for Twin Infants With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Brief Summary: In the present study, we hypothesized that primary mode nIPPV initiated shortly after birth would decrease the incidence of intubation or death in twin infants when compared to nCPAP.

Detailed Summary: After inclusion of eligible twins infants,one of the twins was supported by nCPAP and another nIPPV.
