Late Outcomes of a Randomized Trial of High-Frequency Oscillation in Neonates

Abstract

In a randomized trial involving children who had been born extremely prematurely, those who had undergone HFOV, as compared with those who had received conventional ventilation, had superior lung function at 11 to 14 years of age, with no evidence of poorer functional outcomes.
