What is a NEONATAL HIGH FREQUENCY jet ventilator??//QUICK AND EASY!!

Do JETS confuse you?!!!!! Finally understand the necessary basics- as explained by a neonatologist! /// Bunnell gave us great images and videos for this one! So LEARN: How does the jet function?? What does the jet PIP affect? What gives you the 'jiggle'? Should you always use the jet with a conventional ventilator? What buttons affect ventilation and Oxygenation? When do you use sigh breaths? How can you 'pop' open the lung with atelectasis? What is the relevance of the I-time? What sort of rates are babies on? What pressures (PIP? PEEP?) determine lung expansion?

A massive THANKS to Bunnell (https://bunl.com/) for helping us with so many educational materials for this video (and especially to Kari Neville BSRC, RRT-NPS, FAARC who couldn't have been more responsive and helpful!)
