  • Title: [High-frequency oscillatory ventilation in neonates].
    Author: Grupo de trabajo sobre Patología Respiratoria de la Sociedad Española de Neonatología*.
    Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 2002 Sep; 57(3):238-43. PubMed ID: 12199947.
    Abstract:
    High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) may be considered as an alternative in the management of severe neonatal respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation. In patients with diffuse pulmonary disease, HFOV can applied as a rescue therapy with a high lung volume strategy to obtain adequate alveolar recruitment. We review the mechanisms of gas exchange, as well as the indications, monitoring and special features of the use HVOF in the neonatal period.
