1) We don't have to use large numbers to show the change in airway pressures during breathing; 2) Though the ambient pressure changes with altitude (lower the higher up you go), zero as the reference point can be used at any pressure. In other words, since the ambient pressure is dist...
It also can provide non-invasive ventilation for patients with respiratory insufficiency in the hospital or home. The key distinguishing feature of BiPAP is that the pressurized air is delivered at two alternating levels: inspiratory positive airway pressure(IPAP) and expir...

AVAPS (BiPAP AVAPS device only) If enabled, Average Volume Assured Pressure Support (AVAPS) is a feature available in the S, S/T, PC, and T modes. It helps patients maintain a tidal volume (VT) equal to or greater than the target tidal volume (Vol- ume setting in the AVAPS) by ...
I understand the need for test results, analysis, etc. In simplest terms - If my cpap is pumping 20 liters of air (No problems sleeping, once I'm asleep) and a bipap is pumping air at 20 liters (drying out my mouth due to air pushing through it), is there any value in switching...
In view of the continuing pressure on ICU beds and a consequent need for alternative means of providing ventilatory support within the spinal centre rather than within the ICU setting, there was a requirement to provide a simple means of ventilatory support suitable for use within the ward ...
