Five Things I Learned This Year About Monitoring Neonates
John Lund, BA, RRT Sunday, November 3, 1996
This will be a discussion of lung mechanics and ventilator monitoring in neonates. The discussion will focus on the following topics.
Accuracy of neonatal lung mechanics and ventilator monitors
Dynamics of relationship between monitor and neonate
Limitations and special considerations of monitoring lung mechanics and ventilatory support in neonates
Clinical applications for ventilator monitoring and lung mechanics measurements
Future needs for advancing the science of neonatal ventilator monitoring and lung mechanics measurements
