Supraventricular Tachycardia Induced by Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Northwestern Medical Journal, 2021
The use of noninvasive ventilation in the treatment of respiratory failure has increased in recent years. Nasal continuous positive airway pressure, a noninvasive method of ventilation, is thought to decrease the incidence of arrhythmias, but this case ...

Continuous positive airway pressure ventilation versus Bi-level positive airway pressure ventilation in patients with blunt chest trauma

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2015
Introduction: The use of positive pressure ventilation has decreased the overall morbidity and mortality associated with blunt chest trauma, but invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) is associated with many complications.
