Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Survival Without Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) | 36 weeks | |
| Primary | Survival Without Severe Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) (Threshold Disease or the Need for Surgery) | 55 weeks | |
| Secondary | Death or Neurodevelopmental Impairment | 18-22 months | |
| Secondary | Duration of Mechanical Ventilation | Entire NICU stay, up to 120 days | The length in days that an individual was on mechanical ventilation which includes high frequency and conventional ventilation. |
| Secondary | Survival Without Ventilation | From birth through first 7 days of life. | Surviving the first 7 days of life without any need for ventilation by day 7 |
| Secondary | Received Surfactant Treatment | From birth through 120 days of life. | Received any surfactant treatment. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Air Leaks | From birth through first 14 days of life. | Number of participants with air leaks including pnemothorax, pulmonary interstitial emphysema (PIE), and pneumopericardium. |
| Secondary | Physiological Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia | 36 weeks post menstrual age. | Infants who received support via ventilator or CPAP at 36 weeks PMA. Alternatively, infants who received low levels of supplemental oxygen (\<30%) at 36 weeks PMA may have been eligible for a physiologic challenge in which there was an attempt to wean the infant to room air. Specifically, infants were eligible for the challenge if at 36 weeks PMA if they were receiving effective oxygen \<27% and had majority saturation \>90%, or they were receiving effective oxygen 27-30% and had majority saturation \>96%, or they were receiving room air by nasal cannula. The challenge took place between 36 and 37 weeks PMA. Those who were not challenged because their level of support increased (support with CPAP or ventilation or increased oxygen) were considered to have BPD, as were those who failed the challenge. |
| Secondary | Death | 18-22 months | Participants who died by their follow-up visit at 18-22 months. |
| Secondary | Severe Intraventricular Hemorrhage (IVH) | From birth through first 120 days of life. | There are four grades of intraventricular hemorrhage: Grade I - echodensity/hemorrhage is confied to the germinal matrix. Grade II - echodensity/hemorrhage in the lateral ventricle(s) without distention. Grade III - echodensity/hemorrhage in the lateral ventricle(s) with distention. Grade IV - echodense lesion in the parenchyma. Severe IVH is defined as having IVH grades of III or IV. |
