Adult‐size interface during non‐invasive ventilation for a child with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome: Maintaining principle on a different population
Abstract Acute respiratory failure is a common pediatric condition requiring respiratory support invasively or non‐invasively. Limited access to proper size interface in pediatrics causes a significant drawback from using non‐invasive ventilation. We report a successful use of an adult‐size nasal in...

Summary: | Abstract Acute respiratory failure is a common pediatric condition requiring respiratory support invasively or non‐invasively. Limited access to proper size interface in pediatrics causes a significant drawback from using non‐invasive ventilation. We report a successful use of an adult‐size nasal interface by fitting a child's oro‐nasal area to ventilate him non‐invasively. |
