Suctioning is one of the most important interventions we perform in sick babies. Those little nares are their lifeline, and as they say, if you don't have an airway you don't have anything! This can often be the biggest difference maker in babies with breathing difficulties and can result in a quicker turnaround than any other intervention! But we don't want to use bulb syringes. They make very little difference. An olive tip is what you want so you can turn their entire nare into a suction cath
