  2. Airway pressure release ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airway_pressure_release...

    Airway pressure release ventilation was described initially by Stock and Downs in 1987 [2] [3] as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with an intermittent release phase. APRV begins at a pressure higher than the baseline pressure and follows with a deflation to accomplish tidal ventilation. [4] Fundamentally APRV is a time-cycled ...

  3. Modes of mechanical ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modes_of_mechanical...

    Airway pressure release ventilation is usually utilized as a type of inverse ratio ventilation. The exhalation time (T low) is shortened to usually less than one second to maintain alveoli inflation. In the basic sense, this is a continuous pressure with a brief release. APRV currently the most efficient conventional mode for lung protective ...

  4. Flow-restricted, oxygen-powered ventilation device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow-restricted,_oxygen...

    The (FROPVD) has a peak flow rate of 100% oxygen at up to 40 liters per minute. To use the device, manually trigger it until chest rise is noted and then release. [2] Wait five seconds before repeating. The device must have a pressure relief valve that opens at 60cm of water pressure to avoid over ventilation and trauma to the lungs.

  5. Bag valve mask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bag_valve_mask

    Bag valve mask. Part 1 is the flexible mask to seal over the patients face, part 2 has a filter and valve to prevent backflow into the bag (prevents patient deprivation and bag contamination) and part 3 is the soft bag element which is squeezed to expel air to the patient

  6. Mean airway pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_airway_pressure

    Mean airway pressure typically refers to the mean pressure applied during positive-pressure mechanical ventilation. Mean airway pressure correlates with alveolar ventilation, arterial oxygenation, [1] hemodynamic performance, and barotrauma. [2] It can also match the alveolar pressure if there is no difference between inspiratory and expiratory ...

  7. Continuous positive airway pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_positive_airway...

    However, while PEEP refers to devices that impose positive pressure only at the end of the exhalation, CPAP devices apply continuous positive airway pressure throughout the breathing cycle. Thus, the ventilator does not cycle during CPAP, no additional pressure greater than the level of CPAP is provided, and patients must initiate all of their ...

  8. Basic airway management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_airway_management

    Basic airway management is a concept and set of medical procedures performed to prevent and treat airway obstruction and allow for adequate ventilation to a patient's lungs. [1] This is accomplished by clearing or preventing obstructions of airways. Airway obstructions can occur in both conscious and unconscious individuals.

  9. Mechanical ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_ventilation

    Mechanical ventilation or assisted ventilation is the medical term for using a ventilator machine to fully or partially provide artificial ventilation.Mechanical ventilation helps move air into and out of the lungs, with the main goal of helping the delivery of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide.
