Objective To compare the effect of heated, humidified, high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC)
and nasal continuous positive airways pressure (NCPAP) on lung function and mechanics in …

Background Current criteria for surfactant administration assume that hypoxia is a direct marker
of lung-volume de-recruitment. We first introduced an early, non-invasive assessment of …

… Correspondence and requests for reprints should be addressed to Chiara Veneroni, Ph.D., …
Author contributions: C. Veneroni conceived the study design, performed the data analysis, …

Background We aimed to evaluate if lung mechanics measured by forced oscillatory technique
(FOT) during the first day of life help identify extremely low gestational age newborns (…

Rationale Lung recruitment and continuous distending pressure (CDP) titration are critical for
assuring the efficacy of high-frequency ventilation (HFOV) in preterm infants. The limitation …

Background The role of prone position in preterm infants has not been completely clarified.
We investigated prone versus supine posture‐related changes in respiratory system …

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of forced oscillation technique (FOT) measurements at
the bedside and to describe the relationship between positive end-expiration pressure (PEEP) …

Objective: Monitoring infants’ breathing activity is crucial in research and clinical applications
but remains a challenge. This study aims to develop a contactless method to monitor …
