Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

Chest, 2000
Mechanically ventilating patients with heart failure who have respiratory distress can increase hospital costs, complications, and mortality. A few studies have evaluated the use of noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) as an alternative treatment for these patients.

Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in burns

Burns, 2002
Acute respiratory failure is a common complication of the severely burn-injured patient. Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation is associated with a high rate of complications. Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) has been shown to be as effective as conventional ventilation in improving gas exchange and is associated with ...

Indications for Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 2005
Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is not a new concept. Noninvasive intermittent positive pressure ventilation using a mouthpiece or facemask has been used since the early 1960s. With the recognition of NPPV’s advantages, NPPV has become increasingly popular over the last decade in caring for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF).

Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

2020
Although pharmacological therapy in heart failure is making rapid progress, the prevalence and mortality of heart failure remain high. Thus, effective non-pharmacological therapies combined with conventional therapies are essential for further improving the prognosis of heart failure.

Noninvasive Positive-Pressure Ventilation

2012
Noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) augments spontaneous ventilation using the tight-fitting nasal or oronasal mask without endotracheal intubation. This can be used in a large number of conditions if there is no contraindication. The application of NIPPV should not delay clinically indicated endotracheal intubation.

Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in procedural sedation

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2010
Maintenance of spontaneous effective ventilations can present unique challenges to emergency physicians directing procedural sedation in patients with underlying anatomic or physiologic upper airway pathology. In a morbidly obese patient requiring electrical cradioversion, use of bilevel positive airway pressure facilitated deep sedation while averting

Acute Applications of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation*

Chest, 2003
Noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) has been used increasingly to treat acute respiratory failure (ARF). The best indications for its use are ARF in patients with COPD exacerbations, acute pulmonary edema, and immunocompromised states.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Noninvasive Ventilation

Clinics in Perinatology, 2007
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) hold much promise as means to protect the lungs of newborn infants who have respiratory distress from many causes. A wide variety of options are available to the clinician, including CPAP, bilevel CPAP, and both synchronized and unsynchronized noninvasive mechanical breaths ...

Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in the Emergency Department

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2008
Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is becoming more commonplace, both in the ICU and also in the Emergency Department. This article addresses the rationale and mechanism of action for NPPV. A review of the indications for using NPPV and a discussion detailing the initiation of NPPV follows.

Patient–Ventilator Interaction During Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

Respiratory Care Clinics of North America, 2005
The interaction between the patient and the ventilator is complex,especially in a "semi-open" system as for noninvasive ventilation(NIV). Air leaks around the mask are likely to occur, and they affect patient-ventilator synchrony. Several variables may be responsible for the mismatch between the start of the neural output and that of ventilatory aid ...
