Dr. K. S. Gautham Check out the ƉCLAT trial results: thelancet.com/journals/lanch… In šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ we’ve been extubating ext preterm babies to CPAP 7-8 for many years - now tending to go higher than that. I extubate to 9 now and happy to increase to 10-11 as per ƉCLAT. PTX very rare in surfactant replete babies
