Efficacy and Safety of Exosurf Neonatal and Survanta for the Treatment of Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of two surfactants, Exosurf Neonatal
(Burroughs Wellcome Co.) and Survanta (Ross Laboratories), for the treatment of neonatal
respiratory distress syndrome.

The NICHD Neonatal Research Network conducted a randomized trial at 11 centers comparing the
efficacy of two surfactants -- Exosurf Neonatal (Burroughs Wellcome Co.) and Survanta (Ross
Laboratories) -- for the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome. Newborn infants
with birth weights of 501-1500g with respiratory distress syndrome who were receiving
assisted ventilation with 30% oxygen or more within 6 hours of birth were enrolled between
January 1991 and January 1992. Infants were randomly assigned to receive up to four
intratracheal doses of either Exosurf Neonatal or Survanta.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Newborn infants weighing 501 to 1500 gm with respiratory distress syndrome were
receiving assisted ventilation with 30% oxygen or more

Exclusion Criteria:

- Less than 6 hours of age
