Key result
Using a respiratory monitor during simulated neonatal resuscitation more than halved face mask leak, reducing it from 27% to 11%.
Why the study?
Does the use of a respiratory monitor reduce face mask leak during simulated neonatal resuscitation?
Does the use of a respiratory monitor reduce face mask leak during simulated neonatal resuscitation?
The use of a respiratory monitor during simulated neonatal resuscitation significantly reduces face mask leak.
May reduce simulated mask leak; leaves open whether monitors improve real neonatal resuscitation.
This study investigated whether the use of a respiratory monitor during simulated neonatal resuscitation reduced leak at the face mask. It showed the leak was more than halved, being reduced from 27% to 11% when 25 participants used the monitor to identify and correct the mask leak.
