Ventilatory Support
help maintain breathing:

  • {{c1::High-flow humidified oxygen}} via tight nasal cannula (i.e. “Airvo" or “Optiflow”). 
    • delivers air & oxygen: oxygenates lungs, prevents airways from collapsing. 
    • adds {{c1::positive end- expiratory}} pressure to maintain the airway at the end of expiration.
  • {{c2::Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)}}
    • sealed nasal cannula that can deliver much higher and more controlled pressures.
  • {{c3::Intubation}} and {{c3::ventilation}}. 
    • inserting an endotracheal tube into the trachea to fully control ventilation.
