Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
eed for Non invasive positive pressure ventilation or Invasive Ventilatory support(conventional mechanical ventilation) Conversion to NIPPV or CV will be recorded as dichotomous data (yes/no).Descriptive statistics; proportions , will be used to describe the measured parameters for each group. Categorical data will be analysed with Chi2 test or Fishers Exact Test as appropriate. All analysis will be intention-to-treat.[During hospitalization and using NIPPV and conventional mechanical ventilation, we will get ABG 1 hour after starting treatment and then every 6 hours until the patient is weaned from the ventilator.]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
ecrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) (yes/no) diagnosed on Bell's criteria,will be used to describe the measured parameters for each group[during hospital admission];pneumothorax (yes/no) diagnosed on chest x_ray, will be used to describe the measured parameters for each group.[during hospital admission];patient dactus arteriosus (PDA) (yes/no) diagnosed on echocardiography, will be used to describe the measured parameters for each group.[If patient has the signs and symptoms of PDA 'during hospital admission' echocardiography has done.];bronchopulmonary dysplasis(BPD) (yes/no) diagnosed on chest x_ray.[during hospital admission];Intra ventricular hemorrhage(IVH) (yes/no) diagnosed on cranial ultrasonography,will be used to describe the measured parameters for each group[ In days 1_3 and 7_10 'during hospital admission'.]
