THE USE OF AN ABSOLUTE FILTER TO STERILIZE THE INSPIRATORY AIR DURING INTERMITTENT POSITIVE PRESSURE RESPIRATION

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1963
This paper describes the use of an absolute filter to remove pathogenic organisms from the inspired air during intermittent positive pressure respiration. The filter used removes all particles down to a diameter of 0.5 microns with an efficiency of 99.99

Some Modifications in Method of Treating Tetanus Neonatorum with Intermittent Positive-pressure Respiration [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1964
In a previous paper we showed that the treatment of severe tetanus neonatorum by means of total paralysis and intermittent positive-pressure respiration (I.P.P.R.) represents a real therapeutic advance (Wright, Sykes, Jackson, Mann and Adams, 1961), and ...

TRANSMURAL CENTRAL VENOUS PRESSURE DURING INTERMITTENT POSITIVE PRESSURE RESPIRATION

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1962
During intermittent positive pressure respiration (IPPR) the mean intrathoracic pressure is elevated compared with the mean intrathoracic pressure in a comparable subject breathing spontaneously (Opie, Spalding and Smith, 1961).

Pulmonary blood flow in the cat. The effect of positive pressure respiration [PDF]

Journal of Physiology, 1957
The flow of blood through the lungs is known to alter under many influences, including the phase of the respiratory movements. Measurements of the rate of flow have often been made by indirect methods either because the experiments were performed on man,
