To compare tidal volume (VT) delivery with compliance at 0.5 and 1.5 mL/cmH2O using four different ventilation (PPV) devices (i.e., self-inflating bag (SIB), T-Piece resuscitator, Next Step (a novel Neonatal Resuscitator), and Fabian ventilator (conventional neonatal ventilator) using a neonatal piglet model. Randomized experimental animal study using 10 mixed-breed neonatal piglets (1-3 days; 1.8-2.4 kg). Piglets were anesthetized, intubated, instrumented, and randomized to receive positive pressure ventilation (PPV) for one minute with a SIB with or without a respiratory function monitor (RFM), T-Piece resuscitator with or without an RFM, Next Step, and Fabian Ventilator with both compliance levels. Compliance changes were achieved by placing a wrap around the piglets' chest and tightened it. Our primary outcome was targeted VT delivery of 5 mL/kg at 0.5 and 1.5 mL/cmH2O lung compliance. At 0.5 mL/cmH2O compliance, the mean(SD) expired VT with the Next Step was 5.1(0.2) mL/kg compared to the Fabian 4.8(0.5) mL/kg, SIB 8.9(3.6) mL/kg, SIB + RFM 4.5(1.8) mL/kg, T-Piece 7.4(4.3) mL/kg, and T-Piece+RFM 6.4(3.1) mL/kg. At 1.5 mL/cmH2O compliance, the mean(SD) expired VT with the Next Step was 5.2(0.6) mL/kg compared to the Fabian 4.4(0.7) mL/kg, SIB 12.1(5.3) mL/kg, SIB + RFM 9.4(3.9) mL/kg, T-Piece 8.6(1.5) mL/kg, and T-Piece+RFM 6.5 (1.6) mL/kg. The Next Step provides consistent VT during PPV, which is comparable to a mechanical ventilator. Current guidelines recommend fixed peak inflation pressure in resuscitation, linked to lung and brain injury. The Next Step Neonatal Resuscitator, a cost-effective device, offers volume-targeted positive pressure ventilation with consistent tidal volumes. With two different compliances, the Next Step Neonatal Resuscitator delivered a consistent tidal volume which was similar to a mechanical ventilator. The Next Step Neonatal Resuscitator outperformed self-inflating bags and T-Pieces in delivering targeted tidal volumes. The Next Step Neonatal Resuscitator could be an alternative ventilation device for neonatal resuscitation.
