Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of pulmonary artery pressure in children with respiratory distress syndrome after noninvasive positive nasal pressure ventilation combined with pulmonary surfactant (PS). Methods 95 children with respiratory distress syndrome admitted to our hospital from February 2020 to April 2022 were randomly divided into two groups, 45 cases in the control group and 50 cases in the research group. The control group was treated with noninvasive positive nasal pressure ventilation, while the study group was treated with noninvasive positive nasal pressure ventilation combined with PS. The effects of different treatments on related indexes, pulmonary artery pressure, arterial blood gas indexes, serum cytokines, effective rate and complication rate were compared between the two groups, to analyze the value of combined treatment. Results Compared with the control group, the mechanical ventilation, oxygen therapy and hospitalization time in the study group were shorter (P < 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in pulmonary artery pressure between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment for 1,3,5 and 7 days, the pulmonary artery pressure in the two groups decreased, but compared with the control group, the change in the study group was more obvious (P < 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in arterial blood gas indexes between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment, PaO2 and SaO2 in both groups increased and PaCO2 decreased, but compared with the control group, the changes in the study group were more obvious (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in arterial serum cytokines between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, KL-6, MIF-1 and HMGB-1 in both groups decreased, but compared with the control group, the changes in the study group were more obvious (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the effective rate of the study group was higher (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the incidence of complications in the study group was lower (P < 0.05). Conclusion In the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome, the application of noninvasive positive nasal pressure ventilation combined with PS has an ideal effect, which is worth further popularization and application.
