  • Title: Liquid ventilation in immature newborn rabbits.
    Author: Schwieler GH, Robertson B.
    Journal: Biol Neonate; 1976; 29(5-6):343-53. PubMed ID: 974192.
    Abstract:
    Rabbit fetuses delivered 3 days before term were artificially ventilated with air, oxygen, or oxygenated liquid fluorocarbon for 1.5-3 h. Oxygenation, as revealed by skin colour and ECG was superior in liquid-ventilated animals. Also, liquid ventilation was less harmful to the bronchiolar epithelium and, in contrast to ventilation with gas or oxygen, did not cause the formation of hyaline membranes.
