Intermittent Positive Pressure Breathing
Diseases of the Chest, 1956• Thirty-three patients with pulmonary emphysema and various degrees of bronchospasm, fibrosis, bronchiectasis, and chronic infection were treated with bronchodilator drugs, with and without intermittent positive-pressure breathing. The three bronchodilators used were power-nebulized for inhalation and were given in random sequence so as to determine ...

Intermittent positive-pressure breathing
Postgraduate Medicine, 1976There are relatively few valid indications for the use of intermittent positive-pressure breathing (IPPB). It is of limited or no value as prophylaxis of postoperative pulmonary problems (pneumonia, atelectasis) or as a means of delivering aerosol medications or treating stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In these situations, IPPB has few if

Methods of Intermittent Positive Pressure Breathing
Chest, 1980Inspiratory capacity (IC) was evaluated in 60 patients during the following four respiratory maneuvers: (1) coached unassisted inspiration; (2) inspiratory positive-pressure breathing (IPPB) at 15 cm H2O with the patient passively inspiring; (3) IPPB at 15 cm H2O with the patient coached to actively inspire; and (4) IPPB at a peak pressure adjusted ...

Intermittent positive-pressure breathing after lung surgery
Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2011Intermittent positive-pressure breathing is thought to avoid atelectasis and improve pulmonary function after major lung resections. Since no clear scientific data was available to confirm this, our objective was to determine whether atelectasis can be avoided and if postoperative lung function is improved.

Drowning treated with intermittent positive pressure breathing
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1960A standardized dog experiment was designed to simulate human victims of submersion who seem to first develop laryngospasm, followed by flooding of the lungs. The tracheal tube of lightly anesthetized dogs was clamped until the onset of apnea. The lungs were then flooded for 30 seconds with fresh water or sea water, or apnea was permitted to continue ...

Postoperative intermittent positive pressure breathing versus physiotherapy
The American Journal of Surgery, 1980Seventeen patients admitted to the hospital to undergo elective upper abdominal surgery were randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups: intermittent positive pressure breathing or physiotherapy. Postoperative pulmonary care in the two groups differed only with regard to administration of intermittent positive pressure breathing and chest ...

Hypoxemia and Hypocarbia Following Intermittent Positive-Pressure Breathing
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1976The authors determined the effects of short-term, vigorous intermittent positive-pressure breathing (IPPB) on arterial blood O2 tension (Pao2) in 10 unmedicated preoperative adult patients (ASA class I). Arterial blood was analyzed before and 0.5, 5, 15, and 40 minutes after 12 minutes of IPPB with nebulized 0.9% HaCl and room air.

ROLE OF INTERMITTENT POSITIVE PRESSURE BREATHING POSTOPERATIVELY
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1958The frequency of pulmonary complications after surgery has been such as to indicate strongly the need of prophylactic measures, especially against postoperative atelectasis. Among etiological factors to be watched for are narcotics that suppress the cough reflex, dehydration, prolonged immobilization, and constricting dressings.
