Abstract
Our study has shown that the main risk factor for UT development was intubation duration exceeding 96Â h. Term-borns, and neonates with normal birth weight both have higher risk of UT. High risk groups should be observed carefully and alternative respiratory support treatment, such as continues positive airway pressure (CPAP) may be considered.
