Using airway resistance measurement to determine when to switch ventilator modes in congenital diaphragmatic hernia: a case report

Abstract Background Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a deficiency of the fetal diaphragm resulting in herniation of the abdominal viscera into the thoracic cavity. The best method of respiratory management of congenital diaphragmatic hernia is unclear, but high frequency oscillatory ventilation is...
