The goal of this study is to perform a quality control assessment of our local intubation protocol in any newborn infant requiring endotracheal intubation in the delivery room or neonatal intensive care unit at the Department of Neonatology of the University Hospital Zurich. The primary aims are: * Successful nasal intubation at the first attempt without physiological instability. * Comparison of infants with successful intubation at the first attempt without physiological instability to the infants in the SHINE-Trial in Australia. Participants will be intubated according to our standard intubation procedure using non-invasive ventilation (NIV) delivered through a nasopharyngeal tube.
