Use of surfactant treatment in the delivery room increased overall (adjusted difference [AD] 17.0%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 16.4% to 17.6%), as did less-invasive methods of respiratory support, such as nasal continuous positive airway pressure (AD 9.9%; 95% CI 9.1% to 10.6%). Use of any ventilation (AD \u20137.5%; 95% CI \u20138.0% to \u20136.9%) and steroids for chronic lung disease (AD \u201315.3%; 95% CI \u201315.8% to \u201314.8%) decreased significantly overall. Most of the changes in respiratory care were observed within each of 4 birth weight strata (501\u2013750 g, 751\u20131000 g, 1001\u20131250 g, 1251\u20131500 g).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Many obstetric and neonatal care practices used in the management of infants 501 to 1500 g changed between 2000 and 2009.
