PEEP is of greatest use in ARDS and generated by attaching an airflow threshold resistance device to the expiratory port of the non-rebreathing valve of a manual or mechanical ventilator, allowing a ↓ of airway pressure to a plateau level Conventional PEEP Pressure is maintained at 5-20 cm ...
(1) a PEEP level of 12 cm H2O with alveolar recruitment maneuvers performed after endotracheal intubation, which were repeated every hour after any disconnection from the mechanical ventilator and before the end of surgery (high level of PEEP group) or (2) a PEEP level of 4 cm H2O (low ...
This randomized trial compares the effects of ventilator lung recruitment using PEEP titration vs a conventional low-PEEP strategy on 28-day mortality in
A look at the meaning of work in the future: Fifty years ago, in a cafe that did not employ a barista - and coffee was cheap-two colleagues on their lunch-break were debating what the future of jobs would look like. "Bet one day robots will have their own employment agency," one ...
ventilation delivered by a nasal mask, nasal prongs/pillows or face mask. NPPV eliminates the need for intubation or tracheostomy. Outpatient methods of delivering NPPV include bilevel positive airway pressure (BIPAP or bilevel) ventilator devices, or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices...
