Oxygen nasal prong neonate * 5

An oxygen nasal prong for neonates, also known as a neonatal nasal cannula, is a specialized medical device used to deliver oxygen to newborns and premature infants. It consists of two very small prongs that gently fit into the baby’s tiny nostrils and is connected to an oxygen source to provide low-flow oxygen therapy. The neonatal size ensures a secure and comfortable fit for delicate newborns, allowing them to receive the oxygen they need while still being able to breathe and feed naturally. This device is commonly used in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) for babies with breathing difficulties or conditions such as respiratory distress syndrome.
