Various conditions necessitate the use of limited flow rates in pediatric patients. These include:
- Neonatal Resuscitation: Controlled oxygen flow rates are crucial to avoid oxygen toxicity. - Congenital Heart Disease: These patients often require precise fluid management to avoid exacerbating heart failure. - Renal Disorders: Limited flow rates are essential to prevent fluid overload due to compromised kidney function. - Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia: In these cases, limited oxygen flow rates prevent further lung damage.
