Nasal high-frequency oscillatory ventilation impairs heated humidification: A neonatal bench study
Pediatric Pulmonology Sep 12, 2017
Ullrich TL, et al. Â The researchers undertook this work to explore the effects of nasal high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) settings on oropharyngeal gas conditions. They indicated that intensified nHFOV settings with low frequencies, high amplitudes, and high inspiratory-to-expiratory (I:E) ratios might place infants at an increased risk of upper airway desiccation. Hence, further research work was needed to develop strategies to optimize heated humidification during nHFOV.
