Severe forms of BPD are associated with long term pulmonary disability, neurodevelopmentalabnormalitiesanddeath.itisestimatedthatthereareupto15,000new casesofbpdannuallyintheunitedstates. Most very premature newborn infants are deficient in pulmonary surfactant at birth, and currentclinicalstandardofcareincludessurfactantreplacementtherapyinintubatedinfantsto reduce the incidence and severity of RDS. Despite surfactant treatment at birth, premature infantsoftenneedmechanicalventilationand/orsupplementaloxygenduringthefirstweekof life. Many of these premature infants have a continuing requirement for respiratory support beyond the first week of life, often requiring continued mechanical ventilation with increased support or repeat intubation due to failure when the endotracheal tube is removed. Most of 3
4 these infants experience respiratory deteriorations that are associated with dysfunctional surfactant.althoughinhalednitricoxide(ino)startedbetween7and14dofagesignificantly improves outcomes in this group of infants, these infants still have episodes of surfactant dysfunction. We propose that episodes of surfactant dysfunction in chronically ventilated infants contribute to development of BPD by increasing lung inflammation and injury secondary to greaterexposuretooxygenandventilatorinducedlunginjury,andbyrestrictingdistributionof ino secondary to atelectasis. Based on these observations, we hope to participate in a multicenter,randomized,controlledtrialofsurfactanttreatmentfor500infantsbornat<30weeks gestationandreceivinginoforlungdiseaserequiringmechanicalventilationbeyond7daysof age.itisourhypothesisthatadministrationofadditional late surfactantinconjunctionwith inoinventilatedprematureinfantsbetween7and14daysofagewillimprovetheinfants lung functionandrespiratorystatus.wealsoanticipateanincreasedbenefitfromtheinowhenlate surfactantisadded,andexpecttoseeimprovedsurvivalwithoutbpdinthetreatedpopulation.

Andrea Lampland MD: principal investigator; Mark Mammel MD: co-investigator; Brenda Plumm RCP: study coordinator; Pat Meyers RCP: research assistant; Cathy Worwa RCP: research assistant Background/Significance In the face of exogenous surfactant and use of antenatal steroids, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in premature infants (1). RDS is the result of a series of complex, interrelated events, including atelectasis, ventilation-perfusion mismatching, and lung inflammation/injury (2). The cascade of events which typifies RDS and its long-term counterpart, chronic lung disease (CLD), is rooted in the intrinsic deficits of the premature lung as well as exacerbated by mechanical ventilation, a mainstay of therapy. For this reason, scientists and clinicians alike continue to search for treatment modalities that will not only treat RDS but also decrease the incidence of chronic lung disease. The use of non-invasive ventilatory strategies, such as nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP), in the treatment of RDS are thought to provide constant positive distending pressure while minimizing lung inflammation and injury associated with mechanical ventilation (3). Avoidance of intubation and increased use of NCPAP to treat respiratory distress syndrome has been shown to decrease the incidence of chronic lung disease (4,5). In those babies that require intubation and mechanical ventilation, use of NCPAP at the time of extubation has been shown to decrease extubation failure (6). Investigation is ongoing into the various forms of non-invasive ventilation available to treat respiratory distress in premature infants. Recently, studies have documented that the use of non-invasive nasal intermittent mechanical ventilation (NIPPV), with short inspiratory times and adequate ventilation rates, can adequately treat hypoventilation, apnea of prematurity, and decrease extubation failure when compared to the use of CPAP (7). This being said, only a select few ventilators can provide synchronized NIPPV and our current ventilators used in the Children s Hospitals and Clinics Minnesota NICU do not provide this mode of non-invasive ventilation. Our respiratory therapy department, however, has recently acquired the Viasys CPAP delivery system that can provide both conventional nasal CPAP, at a constant pressure delivery, as well as SiPAP, a newer bi-level pressure delivery system. Unlike the constant airway pressure delivered by CPAP, SiPAP systems cycle the positive airway pressure between two levels and allow patients to breathe throughout the respiratory cycle, with the potential to improve both oxygenation and ventilation during this cycling of pressures. There has been only one study to date looking at the ability of SiPAP to improve ventilation and oxygenation in the premature infant as compared to the standard use of nasal CPAP (8). Standard nasal CPAP delivers a constant distending pressure to promote oxygenation and recruitment of the lung. With this, it has little effect on ventilation, as 6
7 there are no mechanical changes in pressure delivery to promote movement of a tidal volume of air. SiPAP has the potential to improve both ventilation and oxygenation, as it changes the mean airway pressure delivery over time to promote tidal volume movement (ventilation) as well as recruitment of atelectatic lung tissue (oxygenation). This study will provide new findings regarding the oxygenation and ventilatory capacity of SiPAP in the low birth weight population. The ability to use SiPAP as a noninvasive ventilatory tool in the LBW population would have significant clinical impact because this population is highly prone to requiring intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation if failing conventional nasal CPAP due to suboptimal ventilation and persistent hypercarbia. Similarly, it has the potential to extend information already demonstrated in the NIPPV literature showing that a noninvasive ventilatory strategy can often times keep these low birth weight infants from experiencing the deleterious effects of intubation and mechanical ventilation. Lastly, the results of our study have the potential for impacting our respiratory care strategies in the NICU as currently, without the ability to provide NIPPV, we have no noninvasive ventilatory strategy to avoid intubation and Subjects 20lowbirthweightinfantswhoareinpatientintheNICUatChildren shospitals andclinics St.PaulandbeingtreatedwithCPAP.

ALookBack: Virginia Apgar ( ) If we neonatologists ever get a patron saint of our own, it will probably be Virginia Apgar. We are reminded of Dr. Apgar's dedication, wisdom, wit, tenacity, and many contributions to infant care every time we are called to the delivery room to evaluate a baby. Dr. Apgar originally intended to become a surgeon, but to our great good fortune, ended up in anesthesia instead, where she soon turned her attention to the care of mothers and the assessment and resuscitation of newborns. Her elegant paper of 1952 established the scoring system that now bears her name, but she was also famous for her work in the March of Dimes, her love of cars and fast driving, and her construction of her owned stringed instruments -- among other things. For more information, see the Apgar family web site.
