Delivery room resuscitation intensity and associated neonatal outcomes of 24⁺⁰-31⁺⁶ weeks' preterm infants in China: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of this study was to review current delivery room (DR) resuscitation intensity in Chinese tertiary neonatal intensive care units and to investigate the association between DR resuscitation intensity and short-term outcomes in preterm infants born at 24⁺⁰-31⁺⁶ weeks' gestation age (GA).

Methods

This was a retrospective cross-sectional study. The source population was infants born at 24⁺⁰-31⁺⁶ weeks' GA who were enrolled in the Chinese Neonatal Network 2019 cohort. Eligible infants were categorized into five groups: (1) regular care; (2) oxygen supplementation and/or continuous positive airway pressure (O₂/CPAP); (3) mask ventilation; (4) endotracheal intubation; and (5) cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CP
