Description: [...]elective intubation and ventilation is usually considered for infants who are transferred between hospitals soon after starting such an infusion. 1 The article from Dr Browning Carmo et al 2 (see page xxx) provides an excellent justification for transporting such infants on intravenous prostaglandin without routine mechanical ventilation. [...]infants are usually started on around 3-5 ng/kg/min of Prostin in the delivery room or after prompt transfer to the neonatal unit, and the risks of apnoea should be low.
