The Effect of Noninvasive High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation on Desaturations and Bradycardia in Very Preterm Infants: A Randomized Crossover Trial

Christoph M Rüegger et al. J Pediatr. 2018 Oct.

Abstract

Noninvasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation compared with nasal continuous positive airway pressure significantly reduced the number of desaturations and bradycardia in preterm infants. However, noninvasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation was associated with increased oxygen requirements and higher heart rates.

Trial registration: Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry: ACTRN12616001516471.

Keywords: apnea of prematurity; nasal high frequency oscillatory ventilation; noninvasive ventilation.
