Neonatal Expert Observations | Procedures: LISA Less Invasive Surfactant Admin. #LISA #surfactant

Summary

This short explainer from the McGlinn Institute's Expert Observations series introduces less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) for spontaneously breathing preterm infants with RDS on CPAP. It focuses on what the clinician should monitor during the procedure, including breathing, saturation, bradycardia, surfactant reflux and when to escalate to intubation; the full procedural demonstration is in a separate video.
