#NICURespiratoryCare

A neonatal ventilator is a specialized mechanical breathing device used in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) to provide respiratory support to critically ill or premature infants. It aids in managing the delicate gas exchange and lung mechanics for babies weighing as little as a few hundred grams by delivering precise, micro-volume breaths—often as low as 2 to 5 milliliters—to prevent lung injury.
