Additional Study Information:
The purpose of this study is to see if the use of bubble nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) at a pressure of 6-7 centimeters of water (cm H2O) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants is associated with improved gas exchange without any related changes in vital signs.
