Summary
This clinical trial is being done to see if giving surfactant (Curosurf®) will decrease the
number of days that infants will need a breathing tube, decrease the days in the critical
care unit and decrease the number of days needed in the hospital. The primary hypothesis for
this study is that there will be fewer days needed on mechanical ventilation and improved
lung compliance and pulmonary gas exchange.
