Avaliação da ventilação não-invasiva com dois níveis de pressão positiva nas vias aéreas após cirurgia cardíaca Assessment of noninvasive ventilation with two levels of positive airway pressure in patients after cardiac surgery

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011
INTRODUÇÃO: A aplicação de ventilação por dois níveis de pressão positiva (BiPAP®) associada à fisioterapia respiratória convencional (FRC) no pós-operatório (PO) imediato de cirurgia cardíaca pode contribuir para a diminuição das complicações pulmonares.

Why, Immunologically, Housing‐Related Fungi and Endotoxins (and Other Chronic Pro‐Inflammatory Stressors) Risk Latent Tuberculosis Reactivation, Severe Asthma, and Translocating and Invasive Infections in Indigenous Communities in Canada

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Type 1/M1/TH1 and type 3/M1/TH17 pro‐inflammatory switches are risks for latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) reactivation and ongoing infection transmission. This paper considers the heavy toll of reactivation risk in Indigenous communities in Canada and the chronic, everyday pro‐inflammatory stressors connected with type 3/M1/TH17 immune ...

Efeitos da pressão positiva contínua e de dois níveis na via aérea em edema agudo de pulmão cardiogênico: uma revisão sistemática

Revista Pesquisa em Fisioterapia, 2019
INTRODUÇÃO: O edema agudo de pulmão cardiogênico (EAPC) representa uma importante causa de insuficiência respiratória aguda podendo ser atenuada com a instalação de ventilação mecânica não-invasiva (VNI).

Application of Dual Mask for Postoperative Respiratory Support in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patient

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, 2013
In some conditions continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel positive airway pressure (BIPAP) therapy alone fails to provide satisfactory oxygenation. In these situations oxygen (O2) is often being added to CPAP/BIPAP mask or hose.

Continuous and bilevel positive airway pressure may improve radiotherapy delivery in patients with intra-thoracic tumors

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology
Background: Minimizing tumor motion in radiotherapy for intra-thoracic tumors reduces side-effects by limiting radiation exposure to healthy tissue. Continuous or Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP/BiPAP) could achieve this, since it could increase ...
