Aerosol Delivery During High Frequency Jet Ventilation: An MRI Evaluation
Abstract
BACKGROUND: We have previously demonstrated aerosol delivery during conventional and high frequency oscillatory (HFOV) ventilation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in piglets. There are no reports on aerosol delivery during high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV).
OBJECTIVE: To compare delivery of aerosolized gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA) in 3 neonatal ventilator circuits: conventional mechanical ventilation, HFOV, and HFJV.
