Pontus Johansson 17 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Hello all! I just wanted to pop the question if you use moisted and heated air to your T-piece device/ BVM/ other device when ventilating/supporting respiration in the delivery room? We do in GA < 30 weeks with a Fischer Paykel humidifier. If so, what kind of moister/heater? Do you have various modes "normal", "invasive"? Do you use it in just ELBW infants or all? ...or do you use normal, dry air/O2 and wait with the moist and heat until in the NICU? Thanks for your input! //Pontus Johansson Link to post Share on other sites
Vicky Payne 52 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 We do not currently use any heated humidified air in the delivery room.....we do this once we get back to NICU. I would be interested to hear what others do? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Francesco Cardona 150 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Here in Vienna, we use humidified heated air with our T-piece in preterms below 32 weeks with a Fischer-Paykel humidifier. Mode: normal. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
cmcdermott 20 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 We are in the process of setting it up and plan to use for infants <32 weeks mainly because that is the gestation we send a nursing team from NICU to attend and they will set it up 2 Link to post Share on other sites
