With the improvement of assisted reproductive technology and neonatal intensive care unit,the extremely low birth weight infants have increasingly survived.Since the immature pulmonary,antenatal interventions,resuscitation techniques and postnatal respiratory management attribute to their survival and long term outcomes.Non-invasive ventilation minimize barotrauma,volutrauma and oxygen toxicity induced by mechanical ventilation.Other new strategy such asinhaled NO,extracorporeal membrane oxygenation will be explored.
