Pediatric CPAP in EMS

In this episode we walk through how noninvasive ventilation for pediatric respiratory distress moved from an idea to standard practice in central Ohio. Guests Rob Glaze and Kyle Goodknight describe a child’s near‑miss, the partnership with Nationwide Children’s Hospital, and Westerville Fire’s rollout. They debunk myths—kids won’t tolerate masks, PEEP will harm hypotensive children, blow‑by works—and explain why work of breathing, not SpO2, should trigger CPAP.
