14 Apr 😬Is your child with Special Needs struggling with recurrent chest infections 🤧with the changing weather? 🥺Do you find yourself checking in and out of hospital🏨 with your child with chest infections every month a week or two during Autumn?
If you answered yes to the above statements then Humidified High Flow could be the solution to ⛔️stop recurrent chest infections and hospitalisations for your child with special needs!
Here at My Favourite Physio, we see many little ones 👶🏻with Special Needs who tend to have increased chest secretions, low muscle tone, floppy airways and decreased cough, which places these children at a higher risk of having recurrent chest infections leading to hospital admissions. Our Expert Paediatric Physiotherapists🤓 are also trained Respiratory Physiotherapists who can proactively help treat and manage chest infections to prevent hospital admissions.
One of the treatment strategies we use is Humidified High Flow Therapy which is a specialised unit that provides a high flow of room air delivered through nasal cannula. The high flow room air is warmed and humidified to prevent the airways from drying out and becoming irritated, moistens and loosens thick secretions which helps little one’s to clear their secretions and prevent chest colds from becoming chest infections and pneumonia. Using Humidified High Flow Therapy, has helped many of little ones stay out of hospital for months now compared to being in hospital for 1 week every month due to chest infections. 😃
If your little one is constantly struggling with recurrent chest infections 🤧and needing frequent hospital admissions to overcome their chest infections, perhaps its time to reconsider their Chest Physiotherapy routine and find out if Humidified High Flow Therapy is what your child needs to stay well and progress with their development. Ring My Favourite Physio on 📱(02) 9790 4233 or DM us @myfavouritephysio to find out if Humidified High Flow Therapy is suitable for your child.
