Optimising non-invasive ventilation at birth for preterm infants

早产儿在出生时需要呼吸支持来过渡到新生儿的生活。由于这些婴儿非常不成熟，容易受伤，现代呼吸护理策略主要采用使用口罩的最小侵入性方法。然而，我们已经发现，喉在出生时是闭合的，从而阻止空气进入肺部。这个应用程序的重点是优化出生时面罩通风的效率和刺激呼吸。

Infants born very premature require respiratory support at birth to make the transition to newborn life. As these infants are very immature and prone to injury, modern respiratory care strategies utilise the least invasive approaches mainly applied using a facemask. However, we have discovered that the larynx is closed at birth and thereby prevents air from entering the lung. This application is focussed on optimising the efficiency of facemask ventilation at birth and stimulating breathing.
