Nocturnal assisted ventilation using bilevel positive airway pressure: the effect of expiratory positive airway pressure [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 1995
Increasing expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) has theoretical advantages during overnight nasal ventilation. We wanted to evaluate the effect of the addition of EPAP upon the control of nocturnal hypoventilation. Seven patients with neuromuscular/skeletal (NMS) disorder (mean +/- SD forced vital capacity (FVC) 1.06 +/- 0.28 l, arterial oxygen ...

Bi-Level Positive Airway Pressure for Non-invasive Respiratory Support of Foals

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Respiratory insufficiency and pulmonary health are important considerations in equine neonatal care. As the majority of foals are bred for athletic pursuits, strategies for respiratory support of compromised foals are of particular importance.

Indications and practical approach to non-invasive ventilation in acute heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In acute heart failure (AHF) syndromes significant respiratory failure (RF) is essentially seen in patients with acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (ACPE) or cardiogenic shock (CS).

PEEP in non invasive ventilatory treatment of worsened BPCO

open access: yesEmergency Care Journal, 2009
Acute respiratory failure due to exacerbation of chronic pulmonary disease is usually treated with bilevel pressure non invasive ventilation. An high inspiratory pressure is used to improve tidal volume, a lower expiratory pressure is used to neutralize ...

Diversity of Rhinovirus and Enterovirus Infections Among Pediatric Patients Hospitalized in Wisconsin, 2022-2023. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Med Virol
ABSTRACT Severe rhinovirus (RV)/enterovirus (EV) respiratory infections in pediatric patients increased in the US during 2022–2023. This study aimed to characterize RV/EV genetic diversity among hospitalized children in Wisconsin and describe demographic and clinical factors of patients by RV/EV type.

Treatment of sleep central apnea with non-invasive mechanical ventilation with 2 levels of positive pressure (bilevel) in a patient with myotonic dystrophy type 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1906
We are reporting a case of a 29 year-old female with diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (Steinert’s disease) with excessive daytime sleepiness, muscle fatigue, snoring, frequent arousals, non-restorative sleep, and witnessed apneas.

Multidisciplinary approach to congenital central hypoventilation syndrome during pregnancy: case report

open access: yesAJOG Global Reports, 2023
Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects control of breathing caused by variants in the paired-like homeobox 2B (PHOX2B) gene. During pregnancy, women with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome are at risk

Noninvasive ventilation in patients with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema

open access: yesEmergency Care Journal, 2013
The term noninvasive ventilation (NIV) encompasses two different modes of delivering positive airway pressure, namely continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and bilevel positive airway pressure (bilevel-PAP).
