Pediatric and Neonatal Mechanical Ventilation

Abstract

Pediatric and neonatal patients breathe spontaneously during mechanical ventilation. This involves the combination of two distinct controllers: the clinician-controlled mechanical pump (the ventilator) and the patient’s own respiratory muscle pump. The interactions between these two controllers can best be described by examining Newton’s equation of motion.

$$ {P}_{\mathrm{T}}={P}_{mus}+{P}_{\mathrm{appl}}=\left(V\times {R}_{rs}\right)+\left(V\times {E}_{rs}\right) $$
