volume targeted ventilation

What are the Indications for VTV in Neonates?

1. Preterm Infants: VTV is particularly beneficial for very low birth weight and extremely low birth weight infants who are at high risk of lung injury.
2. Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS): VTV can help maintain optimal lung volumes and improve oxygenation.
3. Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD): Infants at risk of or diagnosed with BPD can benefit from the lung-protective strategy of VTV.
4. Post-Surgical Care: Neonates requiring ventilation post-surgery can benefit from the consistent tidal volumes provided by VTV.
