Abstract
Background: The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of introducing less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) for management of preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study identifying preterm neonates with RDS born between 2017 and 2022 in a tertiary neonatal unit, where LISA was introduced in January 2020. Time trend analysis comparing cohort of neonates born before (2017-2020) and after LISA introduction (2020-2022) was performed. The primary outcomes were incidence and severity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Multivariable regression models were used to estimate the association between introducing LISA to RDS management and health and safety outcomes.
Results: In total, 261 neonates with RDS were included (114 born after LISA was introduced). Neonates receiving invasive surfactant administration had lower gestational age, birth weight, lower Apgar scores, and higher oxygen requirement, compared to those receiving LISA. In the time trend analysis, introduction of LISA was associated with lower incidence of BPD (odds ratio (95% confidence interval) 0.34 (0.16, 0.72)), and lower severity of BPD (0.31 (0.16, 0.59)). Pre- and post-LISA period showed similar treatment safety profiles.
Conclusion: Introduction of LISA was associated with improved prognosis in neonates with RDS in Hong Kong.
