High frequency oscillation.
Abstract
The current state of high frequency oscillation (HFO) in Japan is reviewed. The discussion is focused on the following: (i) the repeated application of short duration SI (sustained inflation) is effective in recruiting lung volume and increasing PaO2; (ii) HFO can prevent the formation of granulocytes related to lung injury; and (iii) HFO does not increase the risk of severe complications such as air leaks, bronchopulmonary dysplasia or intraventricular hemorrhage.
