Full description This trial will assess a new method of giving surfactant treatment into the lungs of premature babies with breathing difficulties. 'Supraglottic airway' are soft plastic devices that are easier to insert and more comfortable than current methods, which are challenging to learn and not possible for some neonatal units. We will test the effectiveness of supraglottic airway surfactant treatment, which will allow all babies who need surfactant to receive it in their birth hospital without delay.
