Myths and Misconceptions of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation: Getting Past the Noise and on to the Signal [PDF]
In the pursuit of science, competitive ideas and debate are necessary means to attain knowledge and expose our ignorance. To quote Murray Gell-Mann (1969 Nobel Prize laureate in Physics): “Scientific orthodoxy kills truth”. In mechanical ventilation, the

Variable pressure support ventilation vs. biphasic positive airway pressure/airway pressure release ventilation in experimental acute respiratory failure [PDF]
Background Spontaneous breathing during mechanical ventilation (MV) can improve cardiorespiratory function and lung protection. Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure (BIPAP) and Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) are common MV modes that combine ...

Successful application of airway pressure release ventilation in a child with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome induced by trauma: a case report [PDF]
Background Trauma has been identified as one of the risk factors for acute respiratory distress syndrome. Respiratory support can be further complicated by comorbidities of trauma such as primary or secondary lung injury.

Comparison of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation to High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation in Neonates with Refractory Respiratory Failure [PDF]
Background. Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a relatively new mode of ventilation in neonates. We hypothesize that APRV is an effective rescue mode in infants failing conventional ventilation and it is comparable in survival rates to rescue ...
