SUPPORT Trial Main Derived Data, CSV in The Surfactant Positive Airway Pressure and Pulse Oximetry Trial in Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants

SUPPORT Trial Main Derived Data, CSV
Study Description
This 2x2 factorial designed randomized clinical trial compared the use of continuous positive airway pressure initiated at birth to the administration of surfactant within 1 hour of birth for premature infants born at 24 to 27 weeks gestation. In addition, these infants within 2 hours of birth, had a special pulse oximeter placed to continuously monitor their oxygen saturation in two different target ranges (85-89% or 91-95%). This study helped determine whether or not these two management strategies affect survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (also called chronic lung disease) and survival without severe retinopathy of prematurity (an eye disorder that can lead to blindness). Infants with a minimal gestational age of 24 weeks 0 days to 27 completed weeks (up to 27 6/7ths) and received full resuscitation as needed
