Rationale: Endogenous nitric oxide (eNO) is an important mediator of pulmonary vascularization and reactivity. Measurement of FENO from ventilated preterm infants has always been problematic because of their small tidal volumes and because of the need to do this offline.

Objective: We tested the hypothesis that FENO is associated with BPD severity in ELBW infants.

Methods: Extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants (N=19) who had never been exposed to iNO were enrolled in this study followinginformed parental consent. FENO was measured via offline measurements into NO-inert mylar bags.
