Optimising lung protective resuscitation using a newborn premature lamb model

早产儿有严重的风险，并且可能是长期的肺损伤。如果婴儿在出生时得到最佳复苏，这些并发症可以最大限度地减少。该项目将使用有前途的新成像技术来研究不同策略的影响，使用机械呼吸器，以帮助在出生时充气肺部，以及它们与用于增强肺部成熟度的其他疗法的相互作用。它将为早产儿的复苏提供新的见解。

Premature babies are at risk of severe, and potentially long-term, lung damage. These complications can be minimised if babies are optimally resuscitated at birth. This project will use promising new imaging technologies to examine the influence of different strategies, using mechanical ventilators, to help inflate the lung at birth, and their interactions with other therapies used to enhance lung maturity. It will provide new insights into resuscitating preterm babies.
