Our podcast series with The Incubator Podcast, “CPAP with Purpose”, starts with Episode one: “Extended CPAP: Sustained lung growth, lasting outcomes.”
The guest speaker explores how mechanical stretch from prolonged CPAP might stimulate lung and vascular development. Using stability criteria to guide eligibility, her team measured pulmonary function in neonates and saw something remarkable:
‘The patients who got the extra CPAP for two weeks have increased alveolar volume… they have increased lung diffusion capacity… and they also have improved force expiratory flows.’
Listen in to why some of the simplest of breakthroughs can be worth celebrating. https://bit.ly/3JjLToW
