More about Nitrous Oxide Therapy for PPHN

Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN) is a serious condition where a newborn’s blood vessels in the lungs remain constricted after birth.

This restricts blood flow to the lungs, making it difficult for your baby to get enough oxygen. It can be a challenging condition, but with timely and appropriate treatment, many babies with PPHN can recover fully.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Conception Counseling

What is Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN)?

Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN) is a condition in newborns where the blood vessels in the lungs remain constricted after birth, restricting proper blood flow and oxygen exchange. This can make it difficult for the baby to get enough oxygen into their bloodstream.

What is Nitric Oxide Therapy and how is it administered?

Nitric Oxide Therapy involves administering a gas called nitric oxide to the baby through a ventilator, directly into their lungs. This therapy is used to help relax the constricted blood vessels in the lungs, improving blood flow and oxygen delivery.

How does Nitric Oxide Therapy help in treating PPHN?

When inhaled, nitric oxide acts specifically on the blood vessels in the lungs, causing them to relax and widen. This helps to reduce the high pressure in the pulmonary arteries, allowing more blood to flow through the lungs and pick up oxygen more effectively.

What kind of monitoring is involved during Nitric Oxide Therapy?

Babies receiving Nitric Oxide Therapy are under continuous and close monitoring. This includes constant observation of their vital signs, oxygen levels, and the precise delivery of nitric oxide to ensure the therapy is effective and safe.

Is Nitric Oxide Therapy a common treatment for newborns with PPHN?

Nitric Oxide Therapy is a recognized and often utilized treatment option for newborns diagnosed with PPHN, especially when other supportive measures are not sufficient to improve oxygenation. Its use is determined based on the individual needs of each baby.

What happens when a baby is ready to come off Nitric Oxide Therapy?

When a baby's condition improves and their lung blood vessels begin to function more effectively, the medical team will gradually reduce the amount of nitric oxide administered. This weaning process is carefully managed and monitored to ensure the baby continues to maintain stable oxygen levels without the therapy.
