Neonatal Applications of Heliox: A Practical Review [PDF]
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022 Heliox is a mixture of helium and oxygen that may be utilized as an alternative to air-oxygen during the ventilatory support in the neonate. Special physical properties of Heliox, particularly low density, allow for improved gas flow and diffusion. First
