摘要
Respiratory distress contributes to the high burden of preterm mortality globally. The aim of our study was to evaluate the use of low-cost Bubble Continuous Positive Airway Pressure devices for treating respiratory distress and their outcomes in preterm infants weighing <1500g. Data was extracted from admission records of 211 infants over two distinct 4-year periods before and after introduction of bCPAP. With survival rates of 26.7% and 61.8% in the pre and post bCPAP eras respectively, significantly improved outcomes were found.
