Flow-Driver-Generated Synchronized Nasal Intermittent Positive-Pressure Ventilation Versus Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure After Extubation in Preterm Infants. [PDF]

Pediatr Pulmonol
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of flow‐driver‐generated synchronized nasal intermittent positive‐pressure ventilation (SNIPPV) and biphasic positive airway pressure (BiPAP) after extubation in preterm infants. Hypothesis SNIPPV delivered via a flow‐driver device improves post‐extubation outcomes compared with non‐synchronized ...
