The current approaches to initial noninvasive lung ventilation in premature infants in the early neonatal period: international recommendations and Russian resuscitation experience

Abstract

The paper considers the current approaches to the initial noninvasive lung ventilation (NILV) in premature newborns in the early neonatal period. The international recommendations and clinical algorithms of primary respiratory therapy for neonatal respiratory disorder syndrome are presented. The paper discusses the Russian resuscitation experience of lung ventilation with two airway phases as a starting respiratory support for children with extremely low weight babies in the neonatal intensive care unit. It analyzes early predictors for failures and criteria for optimizing the clinical effectiveness of initial two-phase NILV in premature babies in the early neonatal period.
