In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Many preterm babies born between 22-28+6 weeks' estimated gestational age (EGA) need surfactant, a medicine that helps the lungs. The goal of the study is to compare the use of video-based visualization to direct visualization during a procedure called less invasive surfactant administration (LISA). The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1) does one method of visualization have a increased rate of giving the medicine successfully on the first attempt? 2) what benefits are there of each method?
