The facial masks commercially available for noninvasive positive pressure ventilation therapy for children with clinical conditions of hypoventilation are limited by size and hardness. The present report describes a straightforward method of developing a nasal mask from a room-temperature vulcanizing silicone elastomer for daily contact with the nasal mucosa of babies during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation. The fabrication of the silicone mask with nasal tubes is based on maxillofacial prosthesis techniques, with retention with steel prongs and elastics.
市售的用于低通气临床情况的儿童无创正压通气治疗的面罩在尺寸和硬度上受到限制。本报告描述了一种从室温硫化硅橡胶制备与婴儿鼻黏膜每日接触的无创正压通气用鼻罩的简便方法。带有鼻管的硅酮面罩的制作基于颌面修复体技术,用钢叉和弹性体保持。
