Masking for Brain
Masking involves placing a plastic bag with a small tube on one end over a child’s mouth. The borders of the mask lie flush against the child’s face. Carbon dioxide will collect within the bag as the child exhales, and will be inhaled with the next breath. Carbon dioxide is a powerful cerebral vasodilator, and greatly increases blood flow to the brain. It also drives the respiratory center in the brain to cause hyperventilation.
After 20-40 seconds the child will be seen to hyperventilate. Masking should continue another 30 seconds. Then the mask should be removed. The procedure should be repeated every 5-10 minutes throughout the day.
Masking has been used safely in children for many years. It reduces seizures, grows the chest and strengthens respiratory muscles. It reduces the incidence of respiratory infections. It helps the brain develop. It is effective for all children with brain injury of any kind, not just those with seizures.
Masking is contraindicated in children with acute infections, asthma, high fever, and heart disease.
The Physician must personally instruct the parents on the masking procedure. The child should never be left alone during masking. Parents should not try to make masks on their own.
Masks may be ordered from the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential (www.iahp.org) by the physician. The initial set is free, and will be mailed to the physicians’ office for the purpose of instruction. Subsequently parents may order directly from the Institutes. The charge is $3 per mask. There is a small size and a large size. Younger children should use the smaller size.
