Pediatric ICU Solution

Image
  What is pediatric intensive care unit (PICU)?   The PICU is the section of the hospital that provides sick children with the highest level of medical care. It differs from other parts of the hospital, like the general medical floors, in that the PICU allows intensive nursing care and continuous monitoring of things like heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure.   The PICU also allows medical staff to provide therapies that might not be available in other parts of the hospital. Some of these more intensive therapies include ventilators (breathing machines) and certain medicines that can be given only under close medical supervision.   The difference between NICU and PICU NICU stands for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and is an area of the hospital that specializes solely in the treatment of newborns. PICU stands for Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and is where children are taken when they require the highest level of quality pediatric care.   Pigeon Medical   can offer the equipment used

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 cpap newborn resuscitation   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 pressur

Nasal High Flow Solution

  Application of Nasal High Flow   What is high flow nasal cannula (HFNC)   The use of humidified and heated high flow oxygen therapy   (HFNC) oxygen (O2) therapy is an innovative respiratory support system that has become increasingly popular and discussed in treating critically ill patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure with nasal high flow oxygen therapy. Moreover, HFNC has been proven effective in hypercapnic patients with a stable status which suggested by numerous recent studies. High flow nasal cannula system comprises an air-oxygen blender, a heated wire breathing circuit, a respiratory humidifier, and a nasal cannula. To reach the requirement of HFNC, it is not just a standard nasal cannula rotated to a very high flow rate. The gas must be heated to 37oC, 100% relative humidity, and 21%-100% FiO2 at flow rates up to 60LPM. Although HFNC is not a mechanical ventilation system, it is considered more and more as a respiratory support system.   Improve clinical efficien

How to Use the Nasal High Flow Oxygen Therapy Correctly?

  How to use high flow nasal cannula With the development of medicine and the continuous updating of medical equipment, more and more clinical treatment items and operations that are beneficial to patients have emerged. This requires us to continuously learn and enrich ourselves. In recent years, HFNC   machine has been widely used in the intensive care unit, and what follows is the issue whether our usage is reasonable, and the evaluation of the effect after use.   Is the HFNC machine really used correctly? The following is the relevant knowledge of HFNC machine sorted out   1. The air-oxygen mixing part of the HFNC machine's gas Its function is to mix air and oxygen in front of the turbine according to a preset oxygen concentration. There are two methods for oxygen concentration control. One is to control the oxygen concentration by adjusting the oxygen flow through a buoy-type oxygen flow meter. This method cannot preset the oxygen concentration, and can only generate actual FiO

How Should Medical Air Compressor Be Maintained Daily?

  In order to make the air compressor medical   can be normal operation, to ensure the use of the unit life, we shall develop a detailed maintenance plan, the implementation of scheduled maintenance, scheduled operation, regular inspection and maintenance, so that the air compressor for medical use   set to link clean, oil-free, dirt-free.   1. The main components of the air compressor planned maintenance   1) Maintenance and replacement of components must be determined: medical air compressor system   pressure have been released, and other pressure sources have been isolated, the main circuit on the switch has been disconnected, and has done a good job not to close the safety signs.   2) The compressor cooling lubricant replacement time depends on the use of the environment, humidity, dust and whether the air has acid and alkaline gas. Newly purchased medical air compressors must be replaced with new oil for the first 500 hours of operation. After the normal oil change cycle every 400

What is an Air Oxygen Blender Mixer?

Image
  Oxygen blender definition The medical oxygen pump (air oxygen blender mixer) is a special equipment designed for the safe use of various concentrations of oxygen sources by clinical medical staff to help patients and prevent premature infants/newborns/Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP). It can take full account of the different oxygen concentrations that are indispensable in clinical application. At the same time, it can also avoid the disadvantages of long-term use of pure oxygen by adjusting the oxygen concentration. Therefore, the air oxygen blender mixer   is often used for pediatric hood oxygen supply or nasal catheter oxygen supply, etc.   Basic Operation of Air Oxygen Blender Mixers 1. Please check whether the high-pressure air pipe and oxygen pipe have been fixed.   2. Connect the high-pressure air pipe and oxygen pipe to the pendant tower. The air oxygen blender mixer can be used if it does not alarm.   3. Spin button to adjust the concentration according to the oxygen concent

What Are the Clinical Applications of High Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy (HFNC) in ICU?

Image
  Some people may have heard that High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) is useful, but they don't know the scope of its clinical application in ICU. As a professional medical device manufacturer, Pigeon Medical   will introduce it to you today.   What is hfnc in medical terms 1. In ICU, high flow nasal cannula therapy is suitable for acute hypoxic respiratory failure with spontaneous breathing and no hypercapnia-type I respiratory failure, acute respiratory failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, cardiac surgery, trachea Patients with heart failure before and after intubation or tracheotomy and extubation.   2. The patient uses a dedicated nasal catheter system to produce continuous positive airway pressure (that is, continuous positive airway pressure for non-invasive ventilation) under the condition of continuous high flow output from the device, which prevents alveolar collapse and increases functional disability, reduces the work of breathing, thereby improving oxygenation.   3.
