Since the first reports of the use of inhaled nitric oxide in the early 1990s its applications have been refined to a number of specific conditions. Pre-term and term neonates benefit significantly in the improvement of oxygenation in conditions such as hypoxic respiratory failure and persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate and the reduction in referral rates to extra corporeal membrane oxygenation. Many neonatal units still do not have the ability to administer inhaled nitric oxide though an increasing number of neonatal units have acquired the capability to deliver inhaled nitric oxide in recent years with commercially available delivering devices. In either case if the neonate needs transfer for further management or extra corporeal membrane oxygenation the journey can be improved if inhaled nitric oxide is introduced during transport or could deteriorate if inhaled nitric oxide was discontinued during transport. Delivery of inhaled nitric oxide during transport can be technically challenging and the consequences of increased or interrupted delivery can be dangerous. The different modes of transport either by road or air can influence the method of delivery. We describe our method of delivering inhaled nitric oxide during the retrievals we undertake and how this changes depending upon the type of journey performed. We also suggest guidelines for its use during transport and outline the precautions we take to ensure safety of patient and carers during transport.
