Rancang Bangun Neopuff Berbasis Arduino Uno

Neonatal asphyxia is a critical emergency condition in newborns characterized by the failure to initiate or maintain spontaneous and regular breathing, leading to hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and acidosis. One of the primary interventions to manage this condition is positive pressure ventilation using a resuscitation device such as a T-piece resuscitator or Neopuff. The Neopuff device has advantages over manual methods because it can provide stable and controlled Peak Inspiratory Pressure (PIP) and Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP), thereby reducing the risk of lung injury in newborns. The results show that the Arduino-based Neopuff device is capable of producing PIP pressures between 15–25 cmH₂O and PEEP pressures between 4–6 cmH₂O, which are within the recommended clinical standards for neonatal resuscitation. The pressure sensor successfully detected real-time changes, and pressure adjustment could be performed precisely. Therefore, this device can serve as a simple, affordable, and effective alternative for neonatal resuscitation, with potential for further development through an automatic control system to enhance accuracy and safety
