Pediatric Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy

Pediatric Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is a medical treatment used for infants and young children who have difficulty breathing, often due to conditions like sleep apnea or respiratory distress. CPAP delivers a steady stream of air through a mask or nasal prongs, keeping the airways open and maintaining adequate oxygen levels. This helps reduce the work of breathing and improve overall respiratory function, allowing the child to sleep better and recover. CPAP is carefully monitored by healthcare professionals to ensure the child’s comfort and safety during the treatment.
