High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) vs continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation as primary respiratory support in infants of ≥ 32 weeks gestational age (GA): study protocol for a three-arm multi-center randomized controlled trial
BackgroundHealth problems in neonates with gestational age (GA) ≥ 32 weeks remain a major medical concern. Respiratory distress (RD) is one of the...

Continuous positive airway pressure is unsafe for radiofrequency ablation of lung cancer under sedation: a randomised controlled trial
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety of a minimum continuous positive airway pressure of 4 cmH 2 O (CPAP + 4) during computed tomography (CT)-guided...
-
Effect of continuous positive airway pressure on the respiratory system: a comprehensive review
BackgroundCPAP is characterized by the application of a constant and continuous positive pressure into the patient’s airway. By delivering a constant...

The effect of continuous positive airway pressure on obstructive sleep apnea in children with syndromic craniosynostosis
BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in children with syndromic craniosynostosis (SC). However, objective data on the treatment of OSA...

Early factors associated with continuous positive airway pressure failure in moderate and late preterm infants
To determine the early factors associated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) failure in moderate-to-late preterm infants (32 + 0/7 to...

An Evaluation of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patient’s Quality of life Following Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
AimsObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by episodic sleep state–dependent upper airway collapse. OSA can markedly decrease quality of life...

Drug-induced sleep endoscopy-continuous positive airway pressure (DISE-CPAP), a newer modality to choose the right candidates for CPAP
BackgroundContinuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is recommended for moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We aimed to...

Current Perspectives in Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Positive Airway Pressure
Purpose of ReviewSleep apnea is prevalent and associated with increased overall and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Positive airway pressure...

Safety and effectiveness of bubble continuous positive airway pressure as respiratory support for bronchiolitis in a pediatric ward
The results of several clinical trials suggest that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for acute bronchiolitis can be more effective than...
-
Systematic rotation versus continuous application of ‘nasal prongs’ or ‘nasal mask’ in preterm infants on nCPAP: a randomized controlled trial
To compare whether alternate rotation of nasal mask with nasal prongs every 8 h as compared to continuous use of either interface alone decreases the...
-
High-flow nasal cannula compared with continuous positive airway pressure in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea
PurposeContinuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a standard treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, CPAP has limitations. High-flow...
