Prehospital PEEP for Acute Respiratory Distress: Protocol for a Scoping Review [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP) can improve oxygenation and reduce the work of breathing in patients with acute respiratory distress. In the prehospital setting, systems providing continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), bi‐level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) and adjustable pressure‐limiting (APL) valves are used ...
