Improving ventilation in children using bilevel positive airway pressure.
Copyright policy )Improving ventilation in children using bilevel positive airway pressure.
Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation by way of a mask, commonly known as BiPAP, has become a widely used procedure to support patients with respiratory failure, both in the chronic and the acute settings. Currently, this mode of ventilation has been extended to the pediatric population. This article focuses on the use of BiPAP in pediatric patients. Its purpose, potential situations for use, mode of functioning, and nursing implications will be discussed.
