简要总结
This multicenter trial tested whether inhaled nitric oxide would reduce death or the need for oxygen in preterm infants (less than 34 weeks gestational age) with severe lung disease.
详细描述
This multicenter, randomized, double-masked, controlled clinical trial evaluated the efficacy of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in the treatment of the preterm infant with respiratory failure secondary to respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), sepsis/pneumonia, aspiration syndrome, idiopathic pulmonary hypertension and/or suspected pulmonary hypoplasia.
Infants were followed until death or discharge to home. The trial compared iNO therapy to mock gas delivery as the control, and otherwise incorporated conventional management strategies (including treatment with surfactant and high frequency ventilation as adjuncts to iNO therapy).
During the initial dosing, iNO was started at 5 ppm and could be increased to 10 ppm. If the infant did not respond, study gas was discontinued. For infants who responded to study gas, a gradual weaning was initiated. The total exposure to study gas did not exceed 336 hours (14 days). Infants were monitored for signs of toxicity.
Medical and neurodevelopmental outcome of surviving infants were assessed at 18 to 22 months corrected age by masked, certified examiners.
