Background A lack of clear trial evidence often hampers clinical decision-making during
support of the preterm lung at birth. Protein biomarkers have been used to define acute lung …

Background: Ventilation is the key intervention to resuscitate non-breathing newborns.
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) may facilitate lung-liquid clearance and help …

We describe how a Respiratory Function Monitor (RFM) can aid during simulation-based
manikin training. We demonstrate how a RFM can provide quantitative and qualitative …

Objective To evaluate the changes in preductal oxygen saturation (SpO 2) and heart rate in
preterm infants receiving continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and/or positive …

Background: Guidelines recommend neonatal resuscitation without controlling tidal volume
or positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP). However, these may improve gas exchange …

Background Preterm infants are commonly supported with 4–8 cm H2O continuous positive
airway pressures (CPAP), although higher CPAP levels may improve functional residual …

Die Anpassung vom fetalen Leben an das Leben nach der Geburt erfordert anatomische
und physiologische Veränderungen. Mit dem Ende des intrauterinen Gasaustausches über …

Resuscitation of very premature lambs with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)
improves oxygenation and reduces pulmonary blood flow (PBF). However, the effects of …

Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is critical to the preterm lung at birth, but the optimal
PEEP level remains uncertain. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of …
