Adequate pressure delivery through non-invasive ventilation is essential, as it enhances the growth and development of premature lungs. Various interfaces have been used to ensure proper sealing. The RAM cannula, used as an interface for non-invasive respiratory support in preterm neonates, is associated with reduced nasal trauma compared to short binasal prongs (SBPs), due to its softer material, making it a safer option. However, the RAM cannula has been shown to deliver lower pharyngeal pressure and, therefore, may not maintain airway pressure as consistently as nasal prongs. Currently, limited data is available regarding the efficacy of nasal prongs compared to the RAM cannula as a post-extubation interface for non-invasive ventilation support in preterm infants. Additionally, we have observed that the use of the RAM cannula for non-invasive ventilation in preterm infants is associated with a longer duration of oxygen therapy compared to SBPs.\n\nThe investigators hypothesize that the RAM cannula provides a lower level of positive end-expiratory pressure compared to SBPs during non-invasive ventilation.\n\nThe investigators aim to assess the efficacy and safety of the RAM cannula versus SBPs as nasal interfaces for post-extubation non-invasive respiratory support in preterm infants.', 'detailedDescription': 'Preterm infants will be randomized to receive post-extubation non invasive respiratory support either through RAM cannula or SBPs.
