Reduce morbidity of premature infants with innovative ventilation strategies

—

Over the past decade, significant advances in the understanding of pulmonary aeration, respiratory drive and non-invasive respiratory management of preterm infants have helped to further reduce morbidity in even extremely preterm and very low birth weight infants¹. In addition, increased early use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in neonatology can lead to a reduced number of ventilator induced lung injuries (VILI) and aid prevention of adverse complications associated with prolonged hospital stays and intubation^2,3,4.

Basics of NIV

Dr. Tobias Trips from the Traunstein Hospital in Germany explains the basics of neonatal non-invasive ventilation (NIV). He talks about the requirements for using this technology and all of the current applications. Furthermore, he explains the rotation strategy of the different NIV interfaces to reduce painful skin breakdowns and ulcerations. Dr. Trips also discusses indicators for NIV use. Which cases could benefit from NIV treatment? What are the advantages and disadvantages of NIV treatment? Which should be taken into consideration before starting therapy?

Discover our solutions for non-invasive ventilation

The Dräger Babylog family is applicable to all forms of non-invasive ventilation therapy, including CPAP and oxygen therapy. The demand flow principle of Babylog allows for a stable pressure application even in situations of large and variable leakages. The device supports manual and prolonged breaths as a recruitment tool during the non-invasive ventilation. Additionally, the ventilator offers integrated high flow therapy. In paediatric patient categories, all supported and triggered modes are available.
