AI Article Synopsis

  • High-frequency ventilation is often used for neonates and children facing severe respiratory failure, with HFOV and HFJV being popular methods.
  • The review aims to clarify the physiological principles of HFJV, present evidence of its effectiveness in ICUs for neonates and children, and provide practical clinical guidance.
  • It also identifies future research opportunities related to high-frequency jet ventilation in pediatric care.

Article Abstract

High-frequency ventilation is commonly utilized with neonates and with children with severe respiratory failure. Both high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) and high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) are used extensively in neonates. HFJV can also be used in older, larger children. The purpose of this narrative review is to discuss the physiologic principles behind HFJV, examine the evidence supporting its use in neonatal and pediatric ICUs, give meaningful guidance for clinical application, and highlight potential areas for future research.
