Journal Club - Does Extended CPAP Reduce Intermittent Hypoxemia in Stable Preterm Infants?
The Incubator Channel · 10 Jun 2026 · 17 min
Summary
Ben and Daphna review a secondary analysis of a randomised trial in which stable preterm infants received either two extra weeks of bubble CPAP on room air or discontinued CPAP, comparing intermittent hypoxaemia episodes, baseline saturations and functional residual capacity. The discussion also considers practical implications for units balancing oral feeding protocols with extended CPAP.
