CURDYS: Exogenous Surfactant in Very Preterm Neonates in Prevention of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Advances in perinatal care have made it possible to improve the survival of the most immature neonates, but at the cost of an increase in the population at risk of developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Measures that have attempted to limit the development of BPD are not always effective, or related to major side effects. The physiopathological factors that are identified in BPD should, in theory, respond to surfactant. Therefore, the use of an exogenous surfactant in neonates presenting with pulmonary disease requiring mechanical ventilation, leading to a significant risk of BPD, should allow earlier extubation and thus promote pulmonary healing and growth.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- duration of assisted ventilation [days]
we aim to demonstrate a significant reduction in the duration of assisted ventilation in children presenting with severe respiratory distress at 14+/-2 days of life.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- to reduce the incidence of BPD [36 weeks post conceptional age]
- to improve the inflammatory status of the lung and to restore its capacities for healing and growth [one month]
- to improve development in stature and weight, psychomotor development, and to reduce respiratory sequelae leading to re-hospitalisation [2 years of age]
- to improve height development, psychomotor development and respiratory function [7 years of age]
