About this trial
To assess whether stepwise oxygenation-guided lung recruitment at regular intervals reduces the oxygen saturation index (OSI = Mean Airway Pressure × Fraction of inspired Oxygen × 100 / peripheral Oxygen Saturation, OSI = MAPxFiO2x100/SpO2) averaged over high frequency oscillation ventilation (HFOV) time in extremely preterm infants.
