vito62 Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 What's your experience about SLI applied to preterms at delivery room? What's your setting? (I mean time and pressure)
Stefan Johansson Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 We use Neopuff in the delivery room and use 4 cm H2O as the general PEEP setting. It's hard to control inspiratory time during manual ventilation (...) but we instruct new fellows to close the circuit with "brief" movements (sort of short inspir time )
Francesco Cardona Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 We use Neopuff as well in 28wks plus and try to give sustained inflations (about 2sec per inspiration) and 6-8cm H2O as PEEP for the smaller ones we use a Benveniste system to apply high PEEP and flow - it is not possible to apply ventilations with this system though..
vito62 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Posted March 30, 2012 http://content.karger.com/ProdukteDB/produkte.asp?Doi=298312 I mean this kind of SLI, delivered by neopuff
peppepag Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 We use 25 mmHg for 15 seconds with neopuff. Population all preterm < 32 weeks. Great results!! Since we use it we have reduced use of surfactant but before SLi application we don't aspire the upper airways (there is a lot of surfactant inside them). bye Peppe
