Is Ventilator Required For Symptoms Of Larygomalacia In An Infant?
Hi dr., Summary: My baby was born on 25/04/2015 at 9:33 AM IST. after born it was observed that he has breathing problem, so we shifted to NICU asap. he is on oxygen for 2 days and today doctor shifted to ventilator. Symptoms: when he inhale his chest goes inside. Doctor said it is symptom of Larygomalacia. In which when he inhales, his inhale pipe gets collapsed and due to which enough oxygen does not goes into body and Co2 level increases. Could you please provide answers of following questions: - is ventilator required in this case? - Do we continue with oxygen supply? - is this larygomalacia or any other problem? - What is impact on kid s future due to this issue? Thank you.. Alok Mohata
