Preferred Label : ventilators, negative-pressure;
MeSH definition : Body ventilators that assist ventilation by applying intermittent subatmospheric pressure
around the thorax, abdomen, or airway and periodically expand the chest wall and inflate
the lungs. They are relatively simple to operate and do not require tracheostomy.
These devices include the tank ventilators (iron lung), Portalung, Pneumowrap, and
chest cuirass (tortoise shell).;
