Stress Assessment With and Without Analgesia During Surfactant Therapy in Preterm Infants.

Summary

This study will compare stress, changes in oxygenation and oxidative damage in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) randomized to receive or not remifentanil as an analgesic drug during the administration of porcine surfactant (poractant alfa, Curosurf®) through the traditional (INSURE) or the less invasive (LISA) method.
