To determine the efficacy of the use of caffeine in extubation of premature patients and in reducing mortality. Methods: For this systematic review, a search of the literature was carried out in the databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane and Embase, where a total of 329 review articles were identified, of which, after an exhaustive screening, six randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were included that evaluated the efficacy of the use of caffeine in the extubation of premature patients and in the reduction of mortality, in addition to identifying other benefits, comparing the use of caffeine vs placebo or other substances. Results: The first RCT compared: use of caffeine with standard doses (20 mg/kg loading and 5 mg/kg maintenance) versus placebo: with saline bolus where the trial had to end early, due to higher mortality in one of the groups (RR=1.84). The second, compared according to therapeutic options: use of caffeine with standard doses versus use of amniophylline with standard doses of 5 mg/kg loading and 1.5 mg/kg maintenance, where both caffeine and amniophylline were considered effective in increasing the chance of successful extubation. Amniophylline was associated with a higher incidence of tachycardia (p<0.001) and necrotizing enterocolitis (4.1% vs. 14.3%; RR=0.28). The remaining 4 RCTs were based on caffeine dosage. These compared high doses of caffeine versus standard doses; 2 used high loading dose of 40 mg/kg versus standard loading dose and the other 2 used high loading dose of 80 mg/kg versus standard loading dose. One of these trials showed a significant reduction in the duration of mechanical ventilation in the high dose group (p<0.01). Regarding extubation failure, 2 of these 4 RCTs showed a statistically significant decrease in the high-dose groups (p<0.02). The decrease in mortality was less in most intervention groups compared to the control groups. Conclusions: The use of caffeine is effective in the extubation of premature patients. The decrease in mortality was not statistically significant
