AI Article Synopsis

  • Mechanical ventilation can save the lives of critically ill newborns but may also harm their lungs and lead to long-term issues.
  • It's crucial for healthcare providers to understand how both conventional and high-frequency ventilation work in order to manage neonatal respiratory needs effectively.
  • The review discusses different ventilation types used in neonatal care and suggests personalized strategies based on specific diseases for better patient outcomes.

Article Abstract

Mechanical ventilation is a lifesaving intervention in critically ill preterm and term neonates. However, it has the potential to cause significant damage to the lungs resulting in long-term complications. Understanding the pathophysiological process and having a good grasp of the basic concepts of conventional and high-frequency ventilation is essential for any medical or allied healthcare practitioner involved in the neonates' respiratory management. This review aims to describe the various types and modes of ventilation usually available in neonatal units. It also describes recommendations of an individualized disease-based approach to mechanical ventilation strategies implemented in the authors' institutions.
