What is the treatment for primary or idiopathic apnea of the premature?
Cardiorespiratory and oxygen saturation monitoring. Maintaining the neck in a neutral position and suctioning secretions. Maintaining body temperature as stable as possible, close to the lower range of thermoneutrality. Correcting hypoxemia. Use of methylxanthines because they stimulate the respiratory center and improve diaphragm contractility. Ventilation of high frequency. Stimulation of proprioceptive and olfactory stimuli.
