Description

In the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) the aim of any ventilation strategy is to support the neonate’s respiratory system during compromise while limiting any long-term damage to the lungs and the skin. In this session, we will review the many different ventilation modes and strategies that are available to assist with the optimization of non-invasive ventilation management.
