Trialling patients off CPAP and when to stop CPAP
At least once each day, children in the ward who are clinically stable (have no emergency signs and
SpO
>90%) should be disconnected from CPAP for 10–15 minutes, and carefully examined for
2
changes in clinical signs and SpO
required. Trials off CPAP are best done first thing in the morning, when there is likely to be
adequate staff to observe the child throughout the day. If trials off CPAP are started in the late
afternoon, low staff numbers overnight and the oxygen desaturation that sometimes occurs
during sleep mean that there is a risk of hypoxaemia developing unrecognized overnight.
Children who have an SpO
not be given trials on room air.
Before a trial off CPAP, the SpO
(i.e. SpO
>90%). The child should then be disconnected from the oxygen source and observed
2
carefully to avoid any adverse complications of hypoxaemia. If severe hypoxaemia (SpO
apnoea or severe respiratory distress occurs, children should be immediately restarted on oxygen.
Some children will become hypoxaemic very rapidly when they are taken off oxygen, and this is a
marker of very severe disease and a high risk of death. Parents and nursing staff should be advised
to watch the child to see if he/she develops cyanosis or severe respiratory distress.
