Lung-protective ventilation in the management of congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
World J Pediatr Surg
August 2024
Article Synopsis
- Prioritizing lung-protective ventilation has been shown to significantly reduce mortality in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), despite limited specific evidence for CDH approaches.
- Emerging adult data on ventilator-induced lung injury provides insights that may help improve mechanical ventilation management for CDH patients.
- Key findings stress the importance of balancing positive end-expiratory pressure to avoid lung collapse while preventing damage from over-inflation, with ongoing trials evaluating high-frequency ventilation methods for better outcomes in CDH cases.
