Abstract
- This review focuses on contemporary mechanical ventilator practices used in the initial management of neonates born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Both conventional and non-conventional ventilation modes in CDH are reviewed. Special emphasis is placed on the rationale for gentle ventilation and the current evidence-based clinical practice guidelines that are recommended for supporting these fragile infants. The interplay between CDH lung hypoplasia and other key cardiopulmonary elements of the disease, namely a reduced pulmonary vascular bed, abnormal pulmonary vascular remodeling, and left ventricular hypoplasia, are discussed. Finally, we provide insights into future avenues for mechanical ventilator research in CDH. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
