Protocol summary

Study aim
The study investigates the impact of budesonide and surfactant on treating Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) and preventing Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants
Design
A double-blind randomized clinical trial
Settings and conduct
The study will be conducted at Fatemieh Hospital in Hamadan, where patients will be randomly assigned to two groups: one receiving budesonide and surfactant and the other receiving surfactant alone. The design of the study will be a double-blind randomized trial
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The study included preterm infants with a gestational age of 32 weeks or less and a birth weight of less than 1500 grams, all diagnosed with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) who required surfactant therapy. Exclusion criteria encompassed infants with major congenital anomalies, congenital heart disease (excluding atrial septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus), those experiencing asphyxia (Apgar score less than 4 at 5 minutes post-birth), evidence of necrotizing enterocolitis prior to surfactant administration, chromosomal disorders, heart failure requiring treatment, shock, esophageal atresia, and diaphragmatic hernia
Intervention groups
The study focuses on preterm infants born via natural delivery or cesarean section, with a gestational age of 26 to 32 weeks and a birth weight of less than 1500 grams, who are admitted to the NICU at Fatemieh Hospital in Hamadan due to a diagnosis of Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) and have an indication for surfactant therapy
Main outcome variables
valuating the improvement in respiratory distress and oxygen dependency

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
All preterm babies with birth age less than 32 weeks provided they have respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) There is evidence of RDS in chest X-ray and ABG and they are candidates to receive surfactant Babies born at the hip less than 24 weeks of pregnancy - with a birth weight of less than 400 grams - the presence of congenital cardiopulmonary disease - conditions for not entering the study
Exclusion criteria:
Major Congenital Anomaly: Congenital heart disease excluding atrial septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus, in newborns experiencing asphyxia (Apgar score less than 4 at 5 minutes post-birth), evidence of necrotizing enterocolitis prior to surfactant administration, presence of major congenital anomalies, chromosomal disorders, heart failure requiring treatment, shock, esophageal atresia, and diaphragmatic hernia

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, a block randomization method will be used to allocate patients into study blocks. Initially, participants will be randomly divided into two groups, A and B, using blocks of four. Two pieces of paper labeled "A" and two pieces labeled "B" will be placed into a bag and mixed. For each participant entering the study, one piece of paper will be drawn from the bag, and based on the label on the paper, the patient will be assigned to one of the two groups (Group A: combination treatment; Group B: treatment with surfactant alone). After ten patients, the papers will be returned to the bag, and this process will be repeated until the desired sample size is reached.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
infants don't know the used drugs. clinical manager administer prepared drug according patients code. outcome is recorded by a nurse who is not aware administered drugs . researcher is blind about patients groups and records data.

Primary outcomes

1

Description
BPD (Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia) is classified into three severity categories based on the need for oxygen support at 36 weeks of gestational age: Mild BPD indicates that infants do not require any supplemental oxygen; Moderate BPD means infants need less than 30% oxygen; and Severe BPD refers to infants requiring 30% oxygen or more, with or without positive pressure ventilation at 36 weeks of gestation.
Timepoint
Daily for the first three days of life, and for three days after the intervention, and 30-42 days later."
Method of measurement
Clinical Examination

Secondary outcomes

1

Description
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) is classified into three severity levels: Mild BPD refers to infants who do not require oxygen at 36 weeks of gestational age. Moderate BPD is characterized by infants needing less than 30% oxygen at the same gestational age. Severe BPD involves infants requiring 30% oxygen or more, which may include the use of positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) at 36 weeks of gestational age. This classification helps in determining the management and care required for affected infants.
Timepoint
28 days later
Method of measurement
Clinical examination

Intervention groups

1

Description
Premature infants who meet the eligibility criteria for the study are included in the study through convenience sampling and are randomly assigned to treatment with budesonide and surfactant or surfactant alone.
