A Multivent System for Non-Invasive Ventilation: Solving the Problem of Ventilator Shortage During the COVID-19 Pandemic

IEEE Access, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a severe global problem of ventilator shortage. Placing multiple patients on a single ventilator (ventilator sharing) or dual patient ventilation has been proposed and conducted to increase the cure efficiency for ...

Biphasic positive airway pressure in the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome: a comparative study

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology, 2023
Background Biphasic positive airway pressure, also known as BIPAP, is a type of pressure-controlled ventilation that permits unrestricted spontaneous breathing at any time during the ventilatory cycle. Our study’s objective was to compare BIPAP’s effects

COVID-19 progression, frailty, and use of prolonged continuous positive airway pressure as a ward-based treatment: Lessons to be learnt from a case

Lung India, 2021
Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) poses the greatest public health threat in 100 years, with cases rising rapidly in many countries around the world. We report a case of a 78-year-old female who exhibited a biphasic course of COVID-19; showing initial ...

Intraoperative use of noninvasive ventilation during spinal anaesthesia in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease undergoing orthopaedic surgery: A case report

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022
Compared with invasive mechanical ventilation, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) improves patient comfort and neurocognitive function; and reduces the likelihood of nosocomial infections and the need for sedation.

Understanding neonatal non-invasive ventilation [PDF]

, 2012
Many of the babies admitted to the neonatal unit require some degree of respiratory support at varying levels for a given time period as dictated by individualised assessment of their overall condition.

Cisplatin-Based Chemotherapy for Pulmonary Metastasized Germ Cell Tumors of the Testis - Be Aware of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy is regarded as standard of care for patients with advanced germ cell tumors. In patients with lung metastases and a high tumor load, an association between induction chemotherapy and the development of

Use of Respiratory Support in the Biphase Ventilation Airway Mode in the Newborn

Общая реаниматология, 2006
Biphasic positive airway pressure (BIPAP) (also known as DuoPAP, BiLevel, BiVent, PCV+, SPAP) is a mode of ventilation with cycling variations between two continuous positive airway pressure levels.

Association Between Ventilatory Settings and Development of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Mechanically Ventilated Patients Due to Brain Injury [PDF]

, 2017
PURPOSE: In neurologically critically ill patients with mechanical ventilation (MV), the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality, but the role of ventilatory management has been ...

Pressure Support Ventilation and Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure Improve Oxygenation by Redistribution of Pulmonary Blood Flow [PDF]

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2009
Spontaneous breathing (SB) activity may improve gas exchange during mechanical ventilation mainly by the recruitment of previously collapsed regions. Pressure support ventilation (PSV) and biphasic positive airway pressure (BIPAP) are frequently used modes of SB, but little is known about the mechanisms of improvement of lung function during these ...
