Thin catheter administration: Use a 4 French end-hole catheter marked approximately 1.5 cm above one end. Connect a syringe and catheter prefilled with surfactant preparation. While the infant is breathing via nasal CPAP, introduce laryngoscope and insert catheter using Magill forceps up to the mark on the catheter. Secure tube position and remove laryngoscope. With the infant’s mouth closed, instil surfactant during 30 to 120 seconds by mini-boluses. In cases of apnoea or bradycardia, perform positive pressure ventilation until recovery.
