Abstract

Background: Preterm infants on mechanical ventilation have spontaneous hypoxemia episodes (HE) triggered by decreases in lung volume and tidal volume (V_T). Volume guarantee (VG) is a mode where the ventilator peak pressure is adjusted to keep the exhaled V_T at a target level. The effect of VG on HE under routine clinical conditions has not been fully evaluated. Objective: To evaluate the effect of VG on HE in preterm infants in comparison to pressure control (PC) ventilation under routine clinical conditions. Methods: Twenty-four mechanically ventilated preterm infants with ≥4 HE of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO₂) 2 2 2 2) was lower during VG compared to PC. Conclusion: The use of VG during routine clinical conditions resulted in a modest reduction in the duration of HE (SpO₂ 2 compared to PC. The use of VG did not reduce the more severe HE.
