CPAP devices connected with oxygen sources can function as ventilators
CPAP and noninvasive positive-pressure devices combined with oxygen can act as effective forms of noninvasive ventilation for patients experiencing respiratory failure.
The retrieved literature documents the clinical use and efficacy of noninvasive positive-pressure devices (such as CPAP and NIPPV) in providing respiratory support and serving as alternatives to conventional mechanical ventilators.
