Volume Comparison
Lowest Volume for the Complete Course of Therapy
-
Curosurf is the most concentrated surfactant available in the United States.
-
Less volume of Curosurf is required for initial and repeat dosing than with Infasurf® or Survanta®.
-
Unlike other surfactants, repeat doses of Curosurf are only 50% of the initial doses.
-
Clinical studies have not evaluated if low volume results in superior safety or efficacy on clinically relevant endpoints.
|
Less Demand on Patient-Care Resources
-
Curosurf offers longer dosing intervals (12 hours) than Survanta.
-
Less time devoted to administering surfactant therapy leaves more time for other critical tasks in neonatal care.
