How is Inspiratory Time Managed in Specific Pediatric Conditions?
Management of ti varies depending on the specific respiratory condition:
Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS): In neonates with RDS, shorter ti is often used to match their rapid respiratory rates and ensure adequate oxygenation. Asthma: In children with asthma, ti may need to be adjusted to avoid air trapping and improve expiratory flow. Bronchiolitis: For infants with bronchiolitis, ti should be optimized to reduce the work of breathing and prevent fatigue.
