Neonatal CPAP unit

Neonatal CPAP units are AC-powered medical devices used to support breathing in newborns and infants who require noninvasive respiratory assistance. They deliver continuous positive airway pressure through a nasal cannula or mask, helping to keep the airways open during spontaneous breathing. These units are typically used in intensive care and critical care settings within healthcare facilities.

These devices are typically regulated as medical devices and may be supplied through hospital procurement or specialized medical equipment vendors. They often include features such as adjustable flow rates, oxygen concentration controls, and humidification options. The units are designed to operate using mains electricity, sometimes with rechargeable battery backup, and may interface with compressed medical gas cylinders or integrated oxygen concentrators.
