Abstract :
Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving
intervention for neonates with respiratory failures.
Through intubation, mechanical ventilators help patients
achieving normal oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the
artery and minimizing heavy breaths. However, the use of
mechanical ventilation, especially on prolonged case, in
neonates can cause complications. The process of weaning
off mechanical ventilation, therefore, needs to be carefully
carried out to minimize re-intubation. One of the clinical
parameters measured prior to extubation is oxygenation
index (OI), which is the measurement of oxygen exchange
in the lungs representing lung dysfunction. Objective : to
analisis the relationship between oxygenation index and
extubation outcome in neonatus using mechanical
ventilation. Material and Methods
Keywords :
Oxygenation index, mechanical ventilator, neonates.
