Switched on for im- mediate use (did not use a set warm-up period) The following table summarizes the various protocols used and/or tested for the provision of HHG during resuscitation. (2013) describes a protocol in the laboratory setting. (2018) describe protocols for providing HHG during stabilization at birth. The published randomized controlled trials by te Pas et al.Condensation will therefore start to form. If no power is available and the humidifier is switched off, the humidity will drop below the recommended level (33 mg/L) within 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the gas flow rate and ambient temperature. It is possible to provide humidified resuscitation using the 900RD110 circuit during transport from the delivery room to NICU.To allow for adequate warm-up time, the MR850 Humidifier should be turned on (in Invasive mode) 30 minutes before the resuscitation, as per the MR850 user instructions.Follow the set-up and operation user instructions. HHG can be delivered using the Neopuff T-piece resuscitator, MR850 Humidifier, MR290 or MR225 humidification chamber, and the F&P Humidified Resuscitation T-piece Circuit (900RD110).

You can find out more about mask size and hold when using the F&P Healthcare range of resuscitation masks here.

(2016) showed that round masks with an external diameter of 35 mm/1.37” and 45 mm/1.77” were suitable for preterm infants of < 29 weeks PMA (weighing <1000 g/2.2 lb) and 29-33 weeks PMA (weighing 1000-2500 g/2.2-5.5 lb) respectively. Emphasis is instead placed on the correct size, hold and positioning of the mask. International resuscitation guidelines do not provide recommendations on which type of neonatal resuscitation mask (round vs.The masks are designed to be soft and pliable, with a transparent surface that allows breath condensate to be observed. The Fisher & Paykel Healthcare resuscitation mask range comprises five sizes to fit a range of patients.International resuscitation guidelines recommend that an appropriately sized face mask should cover the mouth and nose but not the eyes and that it should not overlap the chin. A good mask seal with minimal leak is important to achieve effective ventilation.
