NEST360 training videos
These sets of films offer guidance on how to use a number of machines that are important in treating babies on neonatal units.
Pulse oximeter
This machine measures a baby's blood oxygen saturation and heart rate non-invasively by shining red and infrared light through the skin.
Oxygen concentrator
Premature or sick newborn babies often need help to breathe. This machine delivers concentrated oxygen to babies by filtering out nitrogen from ambient air.
Flow splitter
Flow splitters are devices that allow the output from a single oxygen concentrator to be shared among multiple newborn babies at the same time on a neonatal unit.
Pumani bubble CPAP
The Pumani bubble Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine provides breathing support to premature or newborn infants who are struggling to breathe on their own.
Suction pump
This medical device used on neonatal units to clear obstructions from a newborn's airway and stomach, to support them to breathe easily and safely.
Radiant warmer
This machine provides controlled overhead heat to keep a newborn baby warm while still allowing easy access for doctors and nurses.
