title: [Respiratory management of in neonatal intensive care].
abstract: This paper gives an critical overview over different therapies for the management of neonates with respiratory failure. Several, partially revolutionary, new therapies have been introduced in the clinical routine in the last 10 to 15 years like surfactant therapy, inhalation of nitric oxide, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and high frequency oscillatory ventilation. Furthermore, there are new promising ventilatory techniques like pressure support ventilation, proportional assist ventilation or liquid ventilation in clinical testing.
