The JET?!! Oscillator?! VOLUME guarantee ventilators?! Pressure control modes?!! Dr. Sridhar and Dr. Tala have a casual conversation about the advantages/disadvantages of all the different ventilator modes we use in the neonatal intensive care unit. What IS volume guarantee ventilation? Has any ventilator proven to decrease BPD? What does synchronization mean??!!! We discuss what we use in the our units and why!!! Please let us know what you use in YOUR units!!

A respiratory therapist by profession, very interesting conversation. The problem with early extubation is that the elb babies have frequent hypoventilation, even apnea and then we become impatient and reintubate them, with septic screening exposing them to unnecessarily antibiotics. Why we expect a 24 weeker to breathe normally. Do you experience these in your practice

@TalaTalksNICU 11 ай бұрын

Hello! Excellent point! I think we’re all learning that the smallest babies don’t necessarily do better with early extubation. Those 24 weekers are funny too- they can act like 26 weekers or like 23 weekers. I think we’re definitely in a stage where we need to think about each baby separately. I’m always nervous about pulling the tube when the tiny babies are in their honeymoon stage- and then a couple of days later they collapse and need high settings on the vent (especially that first week of life when they’re at most risk for an IVH). So yes- all great points. Thank you for bringing this up

Hello! This is definitely something we need to cover- and I worked in a unit where we used it quite consistently but I haven’t in a few years. So maybe I need to find someone with more recent experience to do this talk!! We’ll look around!!!

@khairyelwerfeli 11 ай бұрын

Thank you so much ❤… you are awesome in such discussions Q/ which is better weaning mode or safer in premis … SIMV vs PTV?

@TalaTalksNICU 11 ай бұрын

Honestly- I think the answer is what you and your unit is comfortable with. If you’re in volume mode and targeting low volumes (4-5ml/kg) and the machine is delivering low pressures to achieve this volume- (and X-ray ok, good fio2 etc) then you can probably try to extubate. With pressure control- you’re steadily lowering the pressure until you feel good about it. So vague! Maybe we should discuss just extubation!

@rais5745 11 ай бұрын

Great discussion! What is your preferred mode of ventilation on the conventional mechanical ventilation when Vg doesn’t seem to be working. It would be great if could share some thoughts on those other modes including rationale, especially PC-AC mode. Thanks

@TalaTalksNICU 11 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for listening! Trying to set up a way to go through the different modes of ventilator usage- they’re all pretty similar. We would use pressure control/ support mode. Ie a delivered rate giving a set pressure and then the spontaneous breaths would get a lower pressure (ie to support these breaths). We can then wean the pressures and the rates. We’ll try to set that up soon!

@@TalaTalksNICU I think SIMV is more flexible in supporting neonates and can manage hyper apnea better with vent rate

@emafenadal-varona1623 Ай бұрын

I am a general pediatrician practicing in Malawi Africa. In our hospital we only have conventional ventilators, no volume or pressure guaranteed options. Currently no surfactant. How can we ethically manage preterms and when can we ethically stop care and let nature takes its course as we are handicapped in terms of equipment, medication and professionals.

@TalaTalksNICU Ай бұрын

Hello! This is such a great question and one that I think we talk about even in developed countries. At what point is the chance of an acceptable outcome so bad that we should stop? I’m guessing when there are fewer resources there is an emphasis on what can be done- eg do you give steroids to mothers in preterm labor? Do you have CPAP available? You can ethically manage babies because you are doing the best you can with what you have available- which is what we’re all doing on some level

Interesting, thanks so much But I would like to know what is the difference between delta p And p max in VN Drager ventilator?

@TalaTalksNICU Ай бұрын

Hello! Not sure which ventilator exactly you’re referring to- but the delta p is always the difference between the PIP and PEEP and Pmax is the maximal pressure used on the baby. Generally we use Pmax when we’re giving volume guaranteed breaths and we don’t want the machine exceeding certain pressures! Does that answer the question!?
