Description

The Optiflow Junior 2 Nasal Cannula by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare is an innovative solution designed specifically for neonates, infants, and children in need of nasal high flow (NHF) therapy. This non-sealing nasal interface provides essential respiratory support in pediatric and neonatal care settings, delivering high flows of blended air and oxygen through a gentle nasal interface.

Key Features

• Non-Sealing Design: Helps maintain an open system to reduce nasal trauma.
• Waveflex™ Technology: Ensures prong stability while allowing natural facial movement.
• Wigglepads™ 2: Simplifies application and adjustment for a secure fit.
• FlexiTube™: Minimizes condensate buildup for consistent performance.

Size and Compatibility

Available in five sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL), the Optiflow Junior 2 accommodates a wide range of patients and flow requirements. It is compatible with F&P 850 and F&P 950 humidification systems, as well as Airvo 2 and Airvo 3 systems, ensuring seamless integration into existing clinical setups.

Therapy Specifications

The cannula delivers heated and humidified air and oxygen with adjustable FiO2 levels from 21% to 95% when used with compatible systems. Flow rates are tailored by size, with the XL size supporting up to 25 L/min, and the Optiflow Junior 2+ (XXL) up to 50 L/min. Clinical guidance recommends a dose-by-weight approach for flow rates, such as approximately 2 L/kg/min for infants up to 12 kg.

Additional Accessories

The product includes accessories like WigglewiNG for nasogastric tube stabilization and replacement Wigglepads. Transition kits are available for both ventilator and blender circuits, allowing NHF therapy without changing invasive or CPAP circuits.
