Lung recruitment strategy and surfactant in delivery room.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of neonatal resuscitation is to establish an effective ventilation, avoiding lung damage. PEEP and T-piece use, as well as Sustained Lung Inflation, lower O2 target and appropriately timed surfactant administration analyzed. A new "gentle" respiratory approach in delivery room can improve newborn respiratory outcome.

Using quality-improvement methods to reduce variation in surfactant administration.
BACKGROUND Respiratory distress syndrome and chronic lung disease are prevalent disorders in extremely low-birth-weight infants. Evidence demonstrates that timely surfactant administration improves respiratory outcomes. OBJECTIVE To assess whether basic quality-improvement methods can reduce the time to initial surfactant dose for premature infants. DESIGN/METHODS The study was conducted in...
متن کاملLung recruitment strategies
Mechanical ventilation in newborns, children and adults leads to lung injury and has been shown to induce the formation of proteinaceous lung oedema causing epithelial disruption and resulting in changes in lung perfusion. Lung injury leads to reduced compliance, worsening of shunt fraction and an inflammatory response that results from high end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressures (Ptp) and in...
متن کاملSurfactant administration in neonates: A review of delivery methods
Surfactant has revolutionized the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome and some other respiratory conditions that affect the fragile neonatal lung. Despite its widespread use, the optimal method of surfactant administration in preterm infants has yet to be clearly determined. The present article reviews several aspects of administration techniques that can influence surfactant delivery in...
متن کاملRDS--CPAP or surfactant or both.
UNLABELLED There is mounting evidence that early continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) from birth is feasible and safe even in very preterm infants. However, many infants will develop respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and require surfactant treatment. Combining a non-invasive ventilation approach with a strategy for surfactant administration is important, but questions remain about the o...
متن کاملResuscitation in the delivery room: lung protection from the first breath.
Resuscitation of newborn infants occurs in approximately 10% of the more than 100 million infants born annually worldwide. The techniques used during resuscitation, such as positive-pressure ventilation and supplemental oxygen, may revive many infants, but have the potential to harm their lungs. In recent years increasing attention has been applied to providing lung protection from the first b...
