INSURE study

The INSURE study was a clinical trial that tested whether giving fluids called surfactant directly into the lungs of preterm infants with respiratory distress could improve outcomes. Surfactant helps keep the lungs open and breathing easier. The study compared different methods of delivering surfactant and analyzed their safety and effectiveness. Its goal was to find the best way to support fragile preterm babies' lung health, reducing the need for mechanical ventilation and decreasing complications like lung injury. This research helps improve treatment strategies for newborns with breathing difficulties due to underdeveloped lungs.
