High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

There are several types of HFV devices including (HFJV) HFOV and hybrids

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

MAP provides a constant distending MAP provides a constant distending pressure equivalent to CPAPpressure equivalent to CPAP

This inflates the lung to a constant and This inflates the lung to a constant and

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

There are several types of HFV devices including (HFJV) HFOV and hybrids

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

MAP provides a constant distending MAP provides a constant distending pressure equivalent to CPAPpressure equivalent to CPAP

This inflates the lung to a constant and This inflates the lung to a constant and

optimal lung volume maximising the area optimal lung volume maximising the area for gas exchange and preventing alveolar for gas exchange and preventing alveolar collapse in the expiratory phase collapse in the expiratory phase

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

Advantages of CPAPAdvantages of CPAP

regular pattern of breathing in preterm infants

This may be attributed to reducing thoracic distortion

and stabilizing the chest wall splinting the airway and

the diaphragm decreasing obstructive apnea and enhancing

surfactant release

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

The third component is a device togenerate positive pressure

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

Advantages of CPAPAdvantages of CPAP

regular pattern of breathing in preterm infants

This may be attributed to reducing thoracic distortion

and stabilizing the chest wall splinting the airway and

the diaphragm decreasing obstructive apnea and enhancing

surfactant release

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

The third component is a device togenerate positive pressure

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

There are several types of HFV devices including (HFJV) HFOV and hybrids

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

There are several types of HFV devices including (HFJV) HFOV and hybrids

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

This inflates the lung to a constant and This inflates the lung to a constant and

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

Advantages of CPAPAdvantages of CPAP

surfactant release

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

The third component is a device togenerate positive pressure

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

Advantages of CPAPAdvantages of CPAP

regular pattern of breathing in preterm infants

This may be attributed to reducing thoracic distortion

and stabilizing the chest wall splinting the airway and

surfactant release

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

The third component is a device togenerate positive pressure

High-Frequency Ventilation

HFV is a radical departure from standard conventional mechanical ventilation

The rationale for HFV is that the provision of tiny gas volumes at rapid rates results in much lower alveolar pressure

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Gregory et al in 1971 applied CPAP in RDS Although the first application of CPAP was

through the endotracheal tube It soon became apparent that it could also be

applied nasally since most newborns are obligate nasal breathers

At the same time the mouth acts as a pressure relief valve if the applied pressure is too high

Use of nasal CPAP also obviated face masks face chambers and head boxes

Advantages of CPAPAdvantages of CPAP

regular pattern of breathing in preterm infants

This may be attributed to reducing thoracic distortion

and stabilizing the chest wall splinting the airway and

the diaphragm decreasing obstructive apnea and enhancing

surfactant release

CPAP delivery systems contain 3 major components

The first is a circuit to provide a continuous flow of inspired gas which must be warmed and humidified

The second is an interface to connect the circuit to the airwayBinasal tubes or prongs are the most commonly usedNewer devices use fluidics to reduce expiratory resistanceand decrease the WOB

The third component is a device togenerate positive pressure
