Effects of Different CPAP Systems on Weaning Parameters in Patients Recovering from Acute Respiratory Failure

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 388))

Abstract

Weaning from mechanical ventilatory support involves a transition from assisted to spontaneous ventilation. There are several ventilatory techniques to wean patients from mechanical ventilation, one of which is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). One strategy to optimize weaning is to decrease the workload of respiratory muscles. However, a common problem with some ventilatory modalities is the presence of demand valve which may induce extra work of breathing as, in the CPAP mode. Therefore, different CPAP techniques have been introduced in clinical practice.
