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 ...
