I noticed you didn't use the 2nd foam piece when placing the prongs. Have you noticed a difference between using no foam piece versus 1 or 2? Also, how do you maintain positive pressure with the babies mouth left open? Do you utilize a chin strap?
Good question 🙋♂️, according to the manufacturer he recommended no foam piece BC having a 2mm gap is better to visualization of any breakdown. We 1st asses if we can maintain the neonates mouth close with positions and only use chin straps a last resort, BC you don’t want to block the natural pop off valve for pressure. I hope this answers your questions.
