39 newborns with respiratory distress syndrome treated by HFOV were evaluated in a retrospective study. We sought to determine the relationshipbetween total duration of ventilation and early institution of HFOV, relationship of oxygenation indexes before HFOV and total duration of ventilationand the occurrence of early and late complications (barotrauma or dependence on FiO2 > 0.3 at 28thday of life, respectively). We did not observestatistically significant relationship in the followed parameters. Even though input oxygenation indexes were close to ECMO criteria, HFOV provedto be successful in all cases.
