A study of intermittent positive pressure ventilation

Medical & Biological Engineering, 1970
Using one degree of freedom RC lung model a respirator design criterion minimising the harmful effects of positive pressure ventilation, has been developed. To suppress the ill effects of long-term mechanical ventilation a mechanical dead space has been inserted in the breathing circuit.

Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation

Physiotherapy, 1992
Summary Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is a simple, portable, non-invasive form of patient-triggered ventilatory support that is delivered to the patient via a nasal mask. This article describes NIPPV equipment, the current known benefits and clinical applications, and discusses other possible applications, as well as who ...

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation without intermittent positive pressure ventilation

Resuscitation, 1993
The purpose of this study was to examine whether tracheal insufflation of oxygen (TRIO) could be used as a substitute for intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in dogs with orotracheal intubation. Twenty-seven anesthetized, paralyzed and intubated dogs were used.

Salbutamol by Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation in Status Asthmaticus

Scottish Medical Journal, 1974
A wet aerosol of 0.5 per cent salbutamol was administered for 3 minutes via a Bennett intermittent positive pressure ventilator driven by compressed air to 8 patients considered to be in status asthmaticus. Arterial blood gas analysis performed before and after salbutamol administration showed marked individual rises and falls in the partial pressure ...

Intermittent positive pressure ventilation in hyaline membrane disease

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1970
One hundred and sixty infants with hyaline membrane disease were treated in an intensive care unit. Sixty-six infants received intermittent positive pressure ventilation; 22 survived. With improved management techniques and the routine use of a pressure-cycled flow generator, 53 per cent survived with assisted ventilation.

High-frequency jet ventilation versus intermittent positive-pressure ventilation

Critical Care Medicine, 1984
Airway pressures and cardiorespiratory variables were compared for conventional ventilation (CV) and high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV), at a similar fraction of inspired O2 (FIO2), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and PaCO2 in 11 ICU patients.

Intermittent positive pressure ventilation

1982
Intermittent postive pressure ventilation (IPPV) was invented at least 200 years ago, but it was not until the 1950s that prolonged IPPV was used to treat poliomyelitis1 , the acute respiratory failure of chronic lung disease2, and tetanus3. The commonest use of IPPV remains during anaesthesia, but the treatment is also applied to very varied diseases ...

Nasal intermittent positive-pressure ventilation in weaning intubated patients with chronic respiratory disease from assisted intermittent, positive-pressure ventilation

Respiratory Medicine, 1993
Nasal intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) has been used for domiciliary ventilatory support, and to avoid intubation for acute respiratory failure in patients with chronic airflow limitation (CAL). Its role in weaning patients from assisted ventilation in intensive care has not been defined.

Intermittent and Continuous Positive Pressure Ventilation

1983
Mechanical ventilation with intermittent or continuous application of positive pressure (IPPV or CPPV) on the airways has become an essential tool in the management of acute respiratory problems. This treatment is efficient for the prevention and the treatment of severe respiratory failure after major surgical interventions or trauma.

A re-evaluation of the hemodynamic consequences of intermittent positive pressure ventilation

Critical Care Medicine, 1983
The hemodynamic effects of intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) have generally been considered straightforward, being dominated by the inspiratory reduction in systemic venous return. Paradoxically, there is considerable debate regarding the effects of PEEP.
