Why is Liquid Ventilation Important in Neonatal Disorders?
Neonates, especially preterm infants, often suffer from underdeveloped lungs and conditions like Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS). Traditional mechanical ventilation can sometimes lead to lung injury due to the high pressures required to inflate immature lungs. Liquid ventilation provides a gentler alternative, reducing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury and improving outcomes in these vulnerable patients.
