Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) versus nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) for preterm neonates after extubation

About one in ten live births around the world are preterm and many of these babies will develop respiratory distress and require help with their breathing. Various strategies are available for this and an updated Cochrane review from July 2023 provides the latest evidence on the comparison of nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation versus nasal continuous positive airway pressure when a baby ’s breathing tube is removed. We asked one of the authors, Marc-Olivier Deguise from the Children ' s Hospital of Eastern Ontario in Canada to tell us about the findings, and he used ElevenLabs to make this recording.
