Common termsCommon terms
• PIP = Peak Inspiratory PressurePIP = Peak Inspiratory Pressure
• Peep = Positive End Expiratory PressurePeep = Positive End Expiratory Pressure
• Frequency = rate of ventilation (20 – 40 Frequency = rate of ventilation (20 – 40 bpm)bpm)
• I – time = Inspiratory time (.2 - .8 seconds)I – time = Inspiratory time (.2 - .8 seconds)
• MAP = Mean airway pressureMAP = Mean airway pressure
• Tidal Volume = amount of air inhaled in a Tidal Volume = amount of air inhaled in a single breath single breath
• Minute VentilationMinute Ventilation
Neonatal VentilationNeonatal Ventilation
• Time Cycled and Pressure Limited Time Cycled and Pressure Limited Ventilation Ventilation – Inspiration is stopped when the selected Inspiration is stopped when the selected
inspiratory time has been reachedinspiratory time has been reached– PIP is the maximum amount of pressure PIP is the maximum amount of pressure
exerted on the patient’s airway during exerted on the patient’s airway during the inspirationthe inspiration
– Initial values = 16-20 cmH20 of PIPInitial values = 16-20 cmH20 of PIP– Good chest rise and Good breath soundsGood chest rise and Good breath sounds
Neonatal VentilationNeonatal Ventilation
• Peep = Positive pressure maintained Peep = Positive pressure maintained in the patient’s airway during in the patient’s airway during expirationexpiration– Prevents collapsed alveoliPrevents collapsed alveoli– Increases FRCIncreases FRC– Improves complianceImproves compliance– Improves oxygenationImproves oxygenation– Decreases intrapulmonary shuntingDecreases intrapulmonary shunting– Allows for lower PIPs to be used Allows for lower PIPs to be used
CPAP vs PEEPCPAP vs PEEP

MAPMAP
• Most powerful influence on oxygenationMost powerful influence on oxygenation
• Average pressure exerted on the airway Average pressure exerted on the airway and lungs for the entire breath cycleand lungs for the entire breath cycle
• Affected by: PIP,PEEP,I-Time, RateAffected by: PIP,PEEP,I-Time, Rate
• High levels can lead to decreased CO, High levels can lead to decreased CO, pulmonary hypoperfusion and pulmonary hypoperfusion and barotraumabarotrauma
Physiologic DeadspacePhysiologic Deadspace
• Physiologic = anatomic + alveolarPhysiologic = anatomic + alveolar
• Anatomic = Gas that fills the airways Anatomic = Gas that fills the airways and never participates in gas exchangeand never participates in gas exchange
• Alveolar = gas that goes to unperfused Alveolar = gas that goes to unperfused alveoli and thus never participates in alveoli and thus never participates in gas exchangegas exchange
• Nl physiologic Vd in neonate = 2cc/kgNl physiologic Vd in neonate = 2cc/kg
Flow rateFlow rate
• Flow rate used determines the type Flow rate used determines the type of wave pattern of wave pattern
• Goal is to set flow to allow maximum Goal is to set flow to allow maximum diffusion time without causing diffusion time without causing turbulent flowturbulent flow– Diffusion time is the length of time that Diffusion time is the length of time that
the gas is in contact with the alveolithe gas is in contact with the alveoli
