The prognosis of newborn infants with acute· resplratory failure is much better in recent years, due to changes in the methods of and the indications for mechanical ventilation.

Stock (1973) for example suggested to reserve mechanical ventilation for patients unlikely to survive without it. It seemed that the uncertainty was due to the lack of an appropriate ventilator for newborn infants.
