Background Neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome (NARDS) was defined in 2017 and the epidemiological data remain unknown. Our objective was to explore aetiological factors, clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients with perinatal NARDS. Methods A multicentre, prospective, cross-sectional study was performed in 58 tertiary neonatal intensive care units in China from Jan 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019. Neonates diagnosed with NARDS were included. Primary outcomes were aetiological factors, clinical characteristics and outcomes. Binary logistic regression and multivariate cox proportional regression were performed to identify independent predictors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and/or death or single death. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.Gov, NCT03311165. Findings Among 70,013 admitted neonates, the incidence of NARDS was 1.44% (1005). The cumulative incidences were 65.6%, 86.7%, 94.1% within one, two and three days after birth. The median gestational age and birth weight were 36.4 weeks and 2700 g. Three main aetiological triggers included pneumonia (58.1%), asphyxia (24.3%) and early-onset sepsis (EOS) (21.3%). BPD and/or death was observed in 213 (21.2%) infants, consisting 104 (10.3%) BPD and 126 (12.6%) deaths. The numbers of mild, moderate and severe NARDS were 537 (53.4%), 286 (28.4%) and 182 (18.2%). Two or more doses of surfactant was associated with increased mortality as compared with one or less doses of surfactant (odds ratio [OR] 1.93...
