HAEMODYNAMIC AND RESPIRATORY CONSEQUENCES OF NONINVASIVE POSITIVE PRESSURE VENTILATION IN PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE
Abstract Previous studies reported that noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) may have beneficial effects in the treatment of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). However, a little is known, until now, about the haemodynamic and respiratory consequences of bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) therapy in these patients. This study prospectively evaluated the haemodynamic and respiratory effects of BiPAP, as a ... إقراء المزيد
