Intermittent Positive-Pressure Breathing [PDF]
Chest, 1978 Why the continued confusion over the issue of intermittent positive-pressure breathing (IPPB) as related to therapeutic benefits? Welch’s’ communication in response to the article by Loren et a12 comparing simple nebulization and IPPB in asthmatic children fails again to identify specific criteria for therapy with IPPB. Welch and Loren are both correct
