To the Editor.— We read with interest the study of Mammel et al.1 However, we wish to address several aspects of the report regarding the design of the investigation, their interpretation of the results and of other reports, and the conclusions they make. First, we take exception to the title itself. Unfortunately, many pediatricians and neonatologists do not make any distinction between the various types of nonconventional, high-frequency ventilators. High-frequency ventilation is a generic term encompassing several very different modalities of ventilation including high-frequency positive pressure ventilation, high-frequency flow interruption, high-frequency jet ventilation, and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation.

Adequate Ventilation

After birth, the neonate must be immediately examined to evaluate the need for further resuscitation. Presence of an adequate respiratory effort and heart rate is vital, in addition to adequate tone and temperature. Warm, dry, and closely monitor the infant immediately after birth. Give positive pressure ventilation if there are any signs of respiratory distress or bradycardia. Low heart rate in a neonate is almost always due to hypoxia, so establish adequate ventilation as soon as possible in these cases. In cases of continued bradycardia, chest compressions and medication (epinephrine) may be necessary. Following resuscitation, transfer the neonate to an appropriate unit for continued monitoring.
