Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on additional passive ventilation generated by CPR compressions in a porcine model [PDF]
Intensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2021 Background Compressions given during cardiopulmonary resuscitation generate small, ineffective passive ventilations through oscillating waves. Positive end-expiratory pressure increases the volume of these passive ventilations; however, its effect on ...
