Experimental and Numerical Modeling of Aerosol Delivery for Preterm Infants

Experimental and Numerical Modeling of Aerosol Delivery for Preterm Infants

Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) represents one of the major causes of mortality among preterm infants, and the best approach to treat it is an open research issue. The use of perfluorocarbons (PFC) along with non-invasive respiratory support techniques has proven the usefulness of PFC as a compl...
