Positive-Pressure respiration

Preferred Label : Positive-Pressure respiration;

MeSH definition : A method of mechanical ventilation in which pressure is maintained to increase the volume of gas remaining in the lungs at the end of expiration, thus reducing the shunting of blood through the lungs and improving gas exchange.;

MeSH synonym : positive-pressure ventilation; positive pressure ventilation; ventilations, positive-pressure; positive-pressure respirations; respiration, positive-pressure; respirations, positive-pressure; positive-pressure ventilations; ventilation, positive-pressure; positive pressure respiration;

CISMeF acronym : PEEP;

MeSH hyponym : non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation; non invasive positive pressure ventilation; positive-pressure ventilations, non-invasive; ventilation, non-invasive positive-pressure; ventilations, non-invasive positive-pressure; positive-pressure non-invasive ventilation; positive-pressure ventilation, non-invasive; positive pressure ventilation, non invasive; non invasive ventilation, positive pressure; non-invasive ventilations, positive-pressure; positive-pressure non-invasive ventilations; ventilations, positive-pressure non-invasive; non-invasive ventilation, positive-pressure; positive pressure non invasive ventilation; ventilation, positive-pressure non-invasive; non-invasive positive-pressure ventilations; positive End-Expiratory pressure; End-Expiratory Pressure, Positive; End-Expiratory Pressures, Positive; Positive End Expiratory Pressure; Positive End-Expiratory Pressures; Pressure, Positive End-Expiratory; Pressures, Positive End-Expiratory;

MeSH annotation : note category: a type of artificial respiration; do not confuse with POSITIVE-PRESSURE RESPIRATION, INTRINSIC, a type of respiratory insufficiency;
