Clinical study using Monivent Neo100 published in Resuscitation

A clinical study showing significant improvement of the quality of manual ventilation of newborns in need of respiratory support using the Neo100 was finalized last year. The clinical paper on the results from this trial has now been accepted to be published in the highly renowned journal Resuscitation and is available at resuscitationjournal.com. 

The clinical study, “Optimization of manual ventilation quality using respiratory function monitoring in neonates: A two-phase intervention trial”, was conducted by Dr Robyn Dvorsky and the research team led by Dr Michael Wagner at the Medical University Hospital in Vienna.

The results of the clinical study, including 90 newborns, show that the use of Neo100 significantly increased the quality of ventilations by a higher percentage (53.7%) occurring within a target volume range in the group with visible monitor and feedback compared to the control group without feedback (37.3%). Furthermore, excessive tidal volumes, which have been previously associated with an increased risk of brain injury, as well as mask leakage, which may impact the ability to deliver air to the baby’s lungs, could be significantly reduced. The equipment was used for newborn resuscitation in the delivery room and during elective intubation in the neonatal intensive care unit. The results from the trial were first presented at the Pediatric Academic Societies (PAS) annual meeting in Washington in May 2023.
