Two-year outcome data suggest that less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) is safe. Results from the follow-up of the randomized controlled AMV (avoid mechanical ventilation) study

Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) is a method to deliver surfactant to spontaneously breathing premature infants via a thin catheter. Here we report the two-year outcome from the AMV (avoid mechanical ventilation) study, the first randomized controlled trial on this mode of surfactant d...

Sumario:Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) is a method to deliver surfactant to spontaneously breathing premature infants via a thin catheter. Here we report the two-year outcome from the AMV (avoid mechanical ventilation) study, the first randomized controlled trial on this mode of surfactant delivery. No statistically significant differences in weight, length or neurodevelopmental outcome (Bayley II scores) were found between the LISA intervention group (n = 95) and the control group (n = 84) that received standard treatment. Conclusion: No differences in outcome were observed at 2 years. LISA seems safe in that aspect.
