Continuous Positive Airways Pressure

Physiotherapy, 1992
Summary This paper reviews the scientific evidence to support the use of continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) in respiratory care. The current role of the physiotherapeutic use of CPAP on an intermittent basis (periodic continuous positive airways pressure or PCPAP) is also considered. It is necessary for therapists working in respiratory care

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Surfactant

Neonatology, 2008
Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) is an effective treatment of respiratory distress syndrome. Due to long-standing experience of early nCPAP as the primary respiratory support option in preterm infants, this approach is sometimes labeled ‘the Scandinavian Model’.

Progress in neonatal intensive care is closely linked to improvements in the management of respiratory failure in small infants. This applies to the care of the preterm infants with immature lungs, and also to treatment of the preterm or full term infants with specific diseases that are associated with respiratory failure.

Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure [PDF]

open access: possibleNeonatology, 1976
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) was employed using nasal prongs in 30 neonates with hyaline membrane disease (HMD). There was a significant improvement in mean Pa02 (from 47 to 80 mmHg; p < 0.001) with no significant change in PaCO<sub>2</sub> or pH within a mean 36 min of therapy. Use of the technique allowed reduction of FiO&
