Pediatric Conditions
The Vapotherm Precision Flow can help treat the signs and symptoms of respiratory distress. Respiratory distress manifests as acute difficulty breathing including dyspnea, tachypnea and labored breathing (e.g. as manifested by accessory muscle use). For example, a patient with bronchiolitis may experience these symptoms.
Bronchiolitis
Vapotherm Hi-VNI is a first line tool for managemenent of respiratory symptoms associated with respiratory distress secondary to bronchiolitis.
Shown to:
- Lower intubation rates
- Decrease length of stay
- Reduce PICU admissions
Asthma
Don’t hassle with masks. Deliver comfortable respiratory support with Hi-VNI Technology. HFNC has been shown to significantly lower intubation rates when used as primary respiratory support in the Pediatric Emergency Department.7

Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
Hi-VNI Technology provides effective non-invasive respiratory support for high acuity pediatric patients.
Pediatric General Care Floor
Struggling with PICU overflows? Consider safely managing patients with Vapotherm on the general care floor.
Pediatric Cardiac ICU
Pediatric Clinical Applications
Secretion Mobilization
Vapotherm Hi-VNI Technology delivers optimal heat and humidification to the patient to mobilize secretions. This process is important in managing the signs and symptoms of respiratory distress that is secondary to many pediatric acute respiratory disorders.
Post-Extubation Support
Successful extubation can be facilitated using the Vapotherm Hi-VNI Technology.
Primary Support for Acute Respiratory Insufficiency
Discover an effective alternative to other forms of NIV by choosing Vapotherm as your primary support tool for pediatric patients in respiratory distress10.
