What are the Benefits of Positive Pressure Ventilation?
The primary benefit of PPV is the rapid stabilization of neonates with respiratory difficulties, which can be critical for survival and long-term outcomes. PPV improves oxygenation, reduces work of breathing, and allows time for other interventions to address underlying conditions such as neonatal sepsis or meconium aspiration syndrome. Effective use of PPV can also reduce the need for more invasive procedures like extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
