Summary: Preterm birth is often associated with respiratory distress syndrome, which may lead to bronchopulmonary dysplasia and high rates of morbidity and mortality. The current treatment approach is the initial use of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), followed by surfactant administration in neonates with worsening respiratory distress. The aim of the present network meta-analysis is to simultaneously assess the effects of less invasive methods for administering surfactant on clinical outcomes and compare them to the conventional InSurE (Intubation, Surfactant administration and Extubation) method.
