Infant Flow LP interfaces
The nasal interface is key to the successful delivery of
nCPAP. An effective seal means fewer leaks, a consistent
level of nCPAP and decreased nuisance alarms for the
clinician for less disturbance to the infant during recovery.
The Infant Flow LP interface features soft, comfort-fit
prongs and masks that provide an effective seal and
minimize the potential for skin necrosis. The Infant Flow LP
interfaces are available in five sizes to fit your infant’s needs.
The masks and prongs do not contain latex or Bisphenol A
(BPA). The components are manufactured without the use
of phthalates, such as DEHP.
Infant Flow LP prongs
High profile design: The base of the prongs help minimize
contact with the skin and provide visual verification for
proper placement. The base should be clearly visible outside
of the infant’s nares. The design limits contact with the
infant’s skin, reducing the risk of necrosis.
Septal relief: A recessed area between the prongs reduces
pressure on the infant’s septum, minimizing skin necrosis in
this delicate area.
Flexible bellow: Between the prongs and the base, flexible
bellows allow each prong to move independently for a
custom fit that provides comfort and minimizes leaks.
Flared tip: The ends of each prong are gently flared to help
form an effective seal and minimize leaks.
Anatomically correct curvature: The prongs are designed
to follow the natural contours of the infant’s nares.
Appropriate prong length: The length of the
prongs helps maintain an effective seal during periods
of movement.
Size designation: The prongs are color-coded, and the
size is clearly indicated on the base tab for quick and
easy size identification.
Key design: The base is keyed to fit the generator
receiver above the pressure monitoring and drive lines.
