Searched in PubMed with NHFOV [All Fields] or non [All Fields] AND invasive [All Fields] AND HFOV [All Fields]. The search was also conducted in Pediatric Academic Societies abstracts archive (2002–2014) and authors’ personal archives (as per 7 February 2016).
Studies are listed in order of publication.
AOP, apnoea of the prematurity; BPD, bronchopulmonary dysplasia; NHFOV, non-invasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation; RDS, respiratory distress syndrome; TTN, transient tachypnoea of the neonate.
