    The Life Pulse High Frequency Jet Ventilator Bidirectional Flow During HFJV Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) delivery with high-frequency jet ventilation. HFJV is provided by the Bunnell Life Pulse High-Frequency Ventilator. HFJV employs an endotracheal tube adaptor in place for the normal 15 mm ET tube adaptor.

  4. Medical gas therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_gas_therapy

    Inhaled nitric oxide is a gas that is inhaled. [1] It was initially described in 1987 as an "endothelial-derived relaxing factor" and has since been used to treat pulmonary disorders. [3] It works by relaxing smooth muscle to widen (dilate) blood vessels, especially in the lungs. [1] Inhaled nitric oxide selects only pulmonary smooth muscles.

    Nitric oxide is a vasodilator, meaning it essentially tells blood vessels when to open or close, improving the flow of oxygen into the body via your heart. Doctors Are Looking At Inhaled Nitric ...

  6. Meconium aspiration syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meconium_aspiration_syndrome

    Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) acts on vascular smooth muscle causing selective pulmonary vasodilation. This is ideal in the treatment of PPHN as it causes vasodilation within ventilated areas of the lung thus, decreasing the ventilation-perfusion mismatch and thereby, improves oxygenation.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaesthetic_machine

    The machine is commonly used together with a mechanical ventilator, breathing system, suction equipment, and patient monitoring devices; strictly speaking, the term "anaesthetic machine" refers only to the component which generates the gas flow, but modern machines usually integrate all these devices into one combined freestanding unit, which ...
