Abstract

Noninvasive high-frequency ventilation (NIHFV) is a new form of noninvasive ventilation which distends positive pressure continuously with oscillations superimposed on spontaneous tidal breathing, through a noninvasive interface.NIHFV, which provides the advantages of nasal continuous positive airway pressure and high frequency ventilation, can rapidly improve oxygenation, effectively remove carbon dioxide, and does not require synchronous techno-logy.It is considered as a new and effective noninvasive ventilation mode.In this paper, the application of NIHFV to neonates were reviewed, including mechanics of gas exchange, research advances and approach to the use of NIHFV. Key words: Noninvasive high-frequency ventilation; Infant, newborn; Respiratory failure; Noninvasive respiratory support
