INTRODUCTION
Surfactan is a material complex covering the
entire lungs alveolar contain heterogenphospolipid layers produce liquidphospolipid layers decrease surfacetension between air-water keep thealveolar open during respiration cycle and
maintain the lung residual volume on the endof expiration

DEFENITION
Surfactan is made from type-II alveoli cell
It grows on 22-24 week gestation
It active on 24-26 week gestation It start to function on 32-36 week gestation
Its controlled by cortisol by its receptors from
type 2 alveoli cell

THE FUNCTION OF SURFACTAN
The lung tension surface is lower than normalbiological liquid
The surface tension is more important than tissueelasticity strength of lung while expanded
Sufactan leakage accumulation of liquid in
alveolar space
It also can increase clearance of mucocillier &eliminate the foreign particulates from the lungs

COMPOSITION OF LUNG SURFACTAN
The lung surfactan is a lipoprotein complexsintetized type 2 alveolar cell & clara cell inepithelial layer of respiration tract
Saturation of phospolipid decrease surfacetension air and water in alveolar avoid thecollapsed of respiration tract while expirated.

It contains 90% lipid and 10% protein
In human, phosphatidylcholine consist of
almost 80% total lipid, half
dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), 8%
neuthral lipid, and 12% protein protein-surfaktan specific, and the rest is protein from
plasma or lung tissue

SURFACTAN SECRETION & SINTETHIC
The lung surfactan is sinthese in the type 2
alveolar cell, one of the cell inside alveolarephitelial
The phospolipid of surfactan is covered byprotein B and C surfactan inside the lamelarbodies secrete in air space by exocitose way

INDICATIONS
Respiratory Distress of the newborn / RDN(surfactant rescue therapy)
Given in < 34 week gestation
They need to fulfill the criteria diagnose for RDN by
clinical signs and imaging
It use trachea intubation and ventilation

Indication for surfactan therapy byoxygenation criteria:
1. FiO2>0,35 and PaO2 60-80mmHg or SpO288-93%
2. Arterial/alveolar oxygen tension ratio,
PaO2/PaO2 (a/A ratio)

Surfactan Dose
Each surfactan has different dose:
ALEC (Pumactant): 100 mg(1,2 ml) repeatafter 1 and 24 hour
Curosurf ( Poractant): 100 mg (1,25 ml/kg).Repeat dose can be given after 12 and 24hour
(Colfosceril): 67,5mg/kg(5 ml)/kg) Repeatdose can be given after 12 and 24 hour
Survanta (Beractant):100mg/kg(4 ml/kg)repeated every 6 hour up to 4 doses(4)

How To Use
Surfactan is single dose, use in supine
position, the head is stright, little extension
After 1st dose, use ventilation 60x/mnt, O2consentration 100% before the next dose.Ventilation in 30 second or until the babybecomes stable.

Divide the dose into 4, dose is givenwihth different position. ventilator is60x/mnt, inspiration time 0,5 second, andFiO2 1,0. ETT is released from the ventilator the head n body is lean to to the right 5-
10, insert the surfactan first dose byNGT during 2-3 sec, than take NGT off n dothe manual ventilation for 30 mnt.(4,5)

SUMMARY
Based on many researches, surfactant is an important therapy in
reducing mortality and morbidity of premature infants. Prophylacticsurfactant is when therapy is given as the first aid in prematureneonates via ETT. Until now there is still disagreement about thetiming of surfactant, whether immediately after birth (in prematureinfants) or after the symptoms of Respiratory Distress Syndromearise. The rationale advanced in relation with the provision of
prophylaxis associated with lung epithelium in preterm infants will bedamaged within a few minutes after administration of ventilation.Respiratory Distress Syndrome (hyaline membrane disease) is themost common cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants.This is due to the deficiency of surfactant keeping alveolar baggrowing and filled with air, resulting in premature infants in whichthe surfactant is still underdeveloped cause less lung tension and thebaby will have asphyxia. Giving surfactant is a routine therapy inpreterm infants with RDS.
