The AIRTiME Study: Assessing Infant Respirations and Tidal-volume with Manometry Evaluation, an observational, prospective cohort study

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to assess if the movement of the CPAP pressure meter while the participant is breathing can be used to determine the size of the breath. We will compare the movement to the amount of air your baby breathes, measured by the breathing monitor attached to the CPAP tubing. We currently do not have information about whether there is a link between the movement of the meter and the amount of air the participant is breathing, if there is this could be important information for babies who need breathing support at birth.
