Abstract :
Background: Using of natural and synthetic surfactant is a rescue treatment for respiratory distress syndrome. In Iran, Survanta and Curosurf are the most frequent used natural surfactant preparations. We compared the clinical response and safety of two surfactants poractant alpha (Curosurf) and beractant (Survanta) for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants. Method:This study was a clinical trial study that performed during a 2-year period in Ghaem Centerʹs neonatal care unit.Sample size was calculated with 95% confidence and power 80. 104 premature infants were treated with surfactant, 74 in survanta group and 30 in Curosurf group,. The differences between the two groups were assessed by ANOVA or the calculation of relative risks. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between infants treated with S and C in mean gestational age (30.58 vs. 29.00 weeks) and birth weight (1388 vs.1330 g). Also there was no significant difference between groups, incidence at 28th day of Bronchopulmunary dysplasia (%40.5 vs. %40), Intra ventricular hemorrhage III/IV (%13/5 vs. % 13/3), pneumothorax (%20 vs. % 20), Patent ductus arteriosis (%28/3 vs. % 20), and death (%28 vs. % 26/6). Conclusion:This study concluded that Survanta and Curosurf are similar in treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
