Optimize Initial Respiratory
Support
Goal:
To establish and maintain the VLBW infant’s
respiratory efforts and functional residual
capacity without injuring the lung (Vent Induced
Lung Injury) from excessive use of positive
pressure ventilation.
What is CPAP ?
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
Technique of applying a continuous distending pressure
to the lungs in a spontaneous breathing infant.
Usually< 10 cm of water pressure
5-10L humidified flow of blended air
How does it Work ?
Distends the airway and alveoli
Maintains lung volume in expiration/FRC
Makes breathing easier
Improves gas exchange
Philosophy of use
Patience
Permissive Hypercapnea
Non invasive application
CPAP Beneficial effects immediately
following Resuscitation
Benefits
Decreased requirements for Intubation
Decreased requirement for high levels of inspired
Oxygen
Decreased Mechanical Ventilation Length of Stay
Decreased need of Postnatal steroids
Compared to Historical controls

CPQCC Recommendation…
Tool-Kit Best Practice #7
Optimize Initial Respiratory Support
Early use of CPAP (within 60 seconds of life)
Avoid Intubation (if possible)
Avoid prophylactic use of Surfactant in the DR
What Causes Chronic Lung
Disease (CLD)?
Summary of Current Causes of
CLD/BPD in VLBW
CAUSE
EFFECT
Barotrauma
Volutrauma
Atelectotrauma
Developmentally
Impaired Alveolarization
and Vascularization
Poor Nutrition
Recurrent infections
Pressure
Volume
Repeated popping open
Less alveoli
Not enough resources to grow
Scarring and destruction
Why Did VMC Switch to Bubble
CPAP Therapy?
Bubble Nasal CPAP
Cost Effectiveness
Less Invasive Than A Other Interfaces
To Improve Overall Outcomes
Columbia Medical Center’s Experience
CLD rates are the lowest in the country
Bubble CPAP is SOLE form of Nasal CPAP.

High Flow Nasal Cannula
Definition
High Flow Nasal Cannula is defined as heated
humidified gas delivered at flows greater than
1lpm.
VMC defines High Flow Nasal Cannula as heated
humidified gas delivered at 2lpm.
High Flow Nasal Cannula
Set-Up
Cochrane Collaborative Review
of High Flow Nasal Cannula 2011
Issue 5
There is insufficient evidence to establish the
safety or efficacy of HFNC as a form of respiratory
support in the preterm infant
When used following extubation there may be a
higher reintubation rate compared to NCPAP
More trials are needed
Early Weaning From NCPAP To HFNC Is
Associated With Prolonged Oxygen Use

High Flow Nasal Cannula
PRO’s for HFNC Use
Ease of use
Improved feeding and tolerance
Easier nursing/patient handling
Decreased nasal septal trauma
High Flow Nasal Cannula
CON’s for HFNC use
Limited data
Unmeasured PEEP
No alarms
VMC’s Position on HFNC
• High Flow Nasal Cannula usage when:
• Patient fails multiple attempts off Bubble NCPAP
• Is still needing more than 2lpm flow
Greg Is Not Happy with the
Baby’s NCPAP Set Up
What’s wrong with this set up?
The Baby Is Agitated and Desating!
What Can We Do To Fix This?
Aaahhh….I feel much better!
I Can See You!!!
Greg’s NOW a Happy Nurse!!!
A Happy Baby is a Happy Nurse
And ULTIMATELY a HAPPY RT!!!
Conclusions
MATCH the Definition on the RIGHT with the Therapy on the LEFT
Good
A.
CPAP is
Great
Bubble CPAP is
B.
High Flow Nasal
Cannula Needs Further Study
Oxygen is a Drug Use with Caution C.
Needs Further
Study
Good
Use with caution
D. Great
