Neonatal Ventilation Solution

  

Application of Neonatal Ventilation

 

Nasal Bubble Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) in neonates is a gentle and non-invasive ventilation respiratory intervention for newborns designed with wide-bore tubing and a low-resistance interface, that is associated with the least damage to the developing premature lung, the least incidence of chronic lung disease and the best long-term pulmonary outcomes among preterm infants. Infant CPAP is used for basic neonatal resuscitation of a newborn baby at birth. It is proven to be safe, effective and can help to avoid intubation and mechanical ventilation when used immediately after birth.

 

The bubble CPAP for neonates comprises a humidified and blended gas source, an interface that connects the breathing circuit to the infant’s airway through the nasal cannula for neonatal babies, and a tube submerged in a bottle of water. As the gas exits the tube, when carrying out resuscitation for newborns, it creates bubbles that produce small airway pressure oscillations. When these oscillations reach the neonate’s lungs, the result is overall improved lung compliance and better gas exchange

 

Cases of Neonatal Ventilation

 

Bubble continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is appealing due to the low cost and simple structure. It is also associated with a decreased incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) compared to mechanical ventilation.

 

There are three major components in a bubble CPAP system which included an air oxygen mixer connecting with compressed air and oxygen source to supply an appropriate concentration level of gas from 21%-100% FiO2 and flow up to 10LPM. Meanwhile, a respiratory humidifier is optional to keep the gas humidified and warm at a constant temperature. A bubble generator is compulsory by creating pressure by placing the expiratory tube into the water container, which designated pressure will be determined by the depth of the tube immersed. A nasal tube and nasal prong can be chosen for nasal interface and make sure it applied to the infant without air and pressure leakage during the resuscitation of the newborn baby.

Installation of Neonatal Ventilation

 

Choose the right size of the nasal interface according to the infant's weight when carrying out resuscitation in newborn baby.

 

Adjust the CPAP gauge to the pressure setting of 5-7 cm/H2O or as ordered.

 

Adjust the oxygen flow to 5-8 L/min, occlude the prongs and observe the bubble chamber for bubbles (make sure combi-s

p in place). Bubbling should be constant but not excessive.

 

Too much space between prongs and nares will allow movement and cause trauma. Too little space between prongs and nares will cause blanching around the nostrils indicating too much pressure.

 

CPAP delivery must be maintained at ALL times whenever the infant is handled.

  Ventilation Solution What is mechanical ventilation?   Mechanical ventilation, a medical O2 inhalation   solution, is a therapy to assist a person by pushing airflow into the patient's lungs when they find it hard or unable to breathe on their own. A mechanical ventilator is used to help or replace spontaneous breathing to reduce the work of breathing and reverse life-threatening respiratory derangement in critically ill patients or to maintain respiratory function in those undergoing general anesthesia. It involves the application of positive pressure, which can be invasive (e.g. in intubated patients) or noninvasive (e.g. CPAP or BiPAP).   Types of mechanical ventilation   Invasive ventilation   With a tube inserted into the patient's airway, performed in the intensive care unit in the hospital.   Endotracheal intubation delivers oxygen to the lung by inserting a tube into the patient ’ s airway (trachea) through the mouth or nose.   Tracheostomy allows inspired gas to ente

Water Trap

Image
The water trap for oxygen concentrator  connected between breathing circuits and is used to collect and retain water drop inside the circuits. Pigeon Medical  uses premium PC material to make the product to ensure its quality and reliability. This type of oxygen concentrator water trap  is reusable and is widely applied in many medical devices like cpap machine for newborn, ICU ventilators, bubble CPAP for neonates, Anesthesia Machine.   Working Principle of oxygen water trap Inside the breathing circuits, the air flow are at certain humidity and it will accumulate condensation which will become larger water drop. The water drop may cause risk to the medical device and patient. A water trap for oxygen concentrator is needed to collect water drops in order to reduce the mentioned risk.   Features of Water Trap   Made with premium PC material.   Reusable and able to bear high temperature sterilization up to 135 ℃.   Three different sizes available.   Specification of Water Trap Material
