Is computer-aided ventilator resetting feasible on the basis of a physiological profile?
It is feasible to predict effects of ventilator resetting on the basis of a physiological profile at least in health.
: The results associated with this isolated change in practice at our institution suggest that chemical warming packs were a useful adjunct in achieving above-average rates of normothermia during delivery room resuscitation of VLBW newborns. Their potential adverse effects should be weighed against the increased risk of mortality associated with hypothermia in this population.
