Study Notes
Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation
- Uses a leak-proof mask for positive pressure.
- Keeps airways open throughout the breathing cycle, improving gas exchange.
- Effective for sleep apnea, acting as a splint for upper airway and trachea.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)
- A type of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.
- Provides constant positive pressure to keep airways open.
- Especially effective for sleep apnea.
Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP)
- Machine provides a higher inspiratory pressure during inhalation.
- Delivers a lower expiratory pressure during exhalation.
- Requires a leak-proof mask.
- Commonly used for COPD patients requiring ventilatory support.
Nursing Actions
- Check for skin breakdown around the mask, as a tight seal is crucial.
- Monitor oxygen levels (both inspiratory and expiratory pressure) for BiPAP patients.
