Less Invasive Surfactant Administration (LISA) vs. Intubation Surfactant Extubation (InSurE) in Preterm Infants with Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

We found LISA to be feasible and equally effective as InSurE for surfactant administration in the treatment of RDS in preterm infants. Future larger RCTs are required to compare the efficacy and long-term outcomes of LISA with the standard invasive methods of surfactant administration.
