The Effect of Extended Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Changes in Lung Volumes in Stable Premature Infants: A Randomized Controlled Trial

To compare changes in lung volumes, as measured by functional residual capacity (FRC), through to discharge in stable infants randomized to 2  weeks of extended continuous positive airway pressure CPAP (eCPAP) vs CPAP discontinuation (dCPAP).
