What the study is about

The secondary objective is to compare the ability of work of breathing indices to predict extubation failure to routine spontaneous breathing tests (SBTs) in intubated premature infants admitted to the ChristianaCare NICU.

Being studied: Observation

Conditions: Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS); PreTerm Neonate
