Factors affecting survival:
– low birth weight– early birth resulting from induction or C-section due to a medical condition or oxygen deprivation before the delivery– Steroid treatment given prior to birth in order to speed up lung development
The infant mortality rate (IMR) - the ratio of infant deaths to live births in a given year - is generally regarded as a good indicator of the overall health of a population.
Helping infants with respiratory distress to breath easier. Seattle PAP plus – Bubble CPAP System is a simple and effective non-invasive solution for respiratory support.
About 10% of premature babies in the United States develop RDS each year.⁵
Maternal risk factors for preterm birth include previous preterm birth, periodontal disease, low maternal body mass, poor prenatal care, poverty, being uninsured, and being a member of a minority group.⁵
With approximately 18,000 hospitalizations each year due to RDS, the total cost of treating these babies in the hospital is approximately $2.3 billion.⁵
INFANT MORTALITY RATES BY STATE
LEADING CAUSES OF INFANT DEATH
SEATTLE PAP PLUS BABYFLOW PLUS
Birth asphyxia and Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy are 2 peripartum events and leading causes of all
neonatal deaths worldwide.²
PREMATURE BIRTH AND SURVIVAL STATISTICS
A system of components engineered for neonates and infants to maximize performance and patient comfort while addressing current issues associated with non-invasive respiratory support therapy.
Birth asphyxia causes 23% of neonatal deaths worldwide⁴
HIE is estimated to occur in about 3-20 per 1,000 live births, making it the most common type of infant brain damage⁴
INFANT MORTALITY STATISTICSIN THE UNITED STATES
The mortality rate of pre-term babies in the United States is still one of the highest for developed countries accounting for 1 in every 10 babies born. Respiratory Distress Syndrome continues to be one of the most treatable complications and improving outcomes.¹

The 10 leading causes of infant death accountedfor 67.5% of all infant deaths in the United States.
These two interventions provide non-invasive therapy for neonatal breathing support.
