Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the application of new tec hn iques: pulmonary surfactant(PS), nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPA P) and the neonatal transportation on the morbidity and mortality of ventilated very low birth weight infant (VLBWI).MethodsSeventy three VL BWI ventilated because of respiratory failure ,recurrent apnea and cardiopulmo nary resuscitation were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two group s according to the use of new techniques, before and after. There were 32 cases during 1995~1998 in group A and 41cases during1999~2002 in group B. In group B, PS was used in 10 cases (24%); NCPAP in 12 cases (29%) after extubation, and transportation in 11 cases (27%).ResultsThe survival rate in group B were significantly improved (71% vs 39%, P
