Summary:Objective To evaluate the prognosis of very preterm infants with severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) receiving mechanical ventilation. Methods A total of 288 preterm infants mechanically ventilated for severe RDS and completed follow-up till 18 months of corrected age comprised these study subjects. The associations of prenatal and postnatal factors, mode and duration of conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV), medication and treatment, and complications with cerebral palsy or mental developmental index (MDI)
