For each baby there is an individual zone of ideal ventilation, which is why the focus should always be on providing highly sensitive ventilation that keeps pace with a baby’s changing needs—from the very first breath onwards.

Yet artificial respiration is one of the most invasive procedures performed in neonatal intensive care, making it particularly important that a ventilator adapt to your patient’s requirements, and not vice versa. The ultimate aim is to achieve a harmonious balance between patient and ventilator—in which the ventilator adapts not only to the patient’s needs, but also protects the baby as much as possible.

Here, you will find a selection of resources—including research, videos, and clinical guidelines—to support you in the respiratory care of delicate infants.
