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.

High-Frequency Positive Pressure Ventilation

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1983
The prototype for high frequency ventilation is found in nature — the respiration of hummingbirds and insects is synchronous with the beat of their wings. In 1915 Henderson et al. (1) commented on the rapid, shallow breathing in dogs during heat polypnea: “There may easily be a gaseous exchange sufficient to support life even when tidal volume is ...

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.

Negative and Positive Noninvasive Pressure Ventilation

2021
Mechanical ventilation replaces or supplements the respiratory muscles’ activity. Invasive mechanical ventilation is performed using a device that bypasses the upper airways, such as the nasal/orotracheal tube or the tracheostomy tube. Noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV), on the other hand, uses an interface that does not bypass the upper airways,

Pediatric noninvasive positive pressure ventilation

Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, 2001
OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical use of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) in both acute hypoxic and hypercarbic forms of pediatric respiratory failure, including its mechanism of action and implementation. DATA SOURCES: Studies were identified through a MEDLINE search using respiratory failure, pediatrics, noninvasive ventilation, and ...

Positive pressure ventilation in the weaning of preterm newborns

Minerva Pediatrics, 2020
Weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) of preterm newborns (PTNB) is one of the critical stages of life support in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) has been used to facilitate weaning from IMV and includes continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) without or with inspiratory pressure

Non-invasive Positive-Pressure Ventilation

2001
NIPPV can be delivered nasally or by face mask, using either a conventional mechanical ventilator or a machine designed specifically for this purpose. NIPPV has two major modes of supplying ventilatory support, namely continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP).

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 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 ...

Calculation of mean airway pressure during neonatal intermittent positive pressure ventilation and high frequency positive pressure ventilation

Pediatric Pulmonology, 1985
AbstractBecause mean airway pressure (MAP) is extensively used to quantify ventilation administered during the neonatal period, the accuracy and reproducibility of the techniques currently used to define MAP were assessed. All techniques were found to compare closely with MAP measured by integration of the pressure wave form even at ventilator rates in
