Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) in
providing ventilatory support to patients with acute lung injury of diverse etiology and mild-to …

Background: Airway pressure-release ventilation (APRV) is a pressure-limited, time-cycled
mode of mechanical ventilation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate our initial …

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) delivers continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) and may support ventilation simultaneously. This investigation tested whether, after …

Objective: To review the use of airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) in the treatment
of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome. Data Source: Published animal …

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a relatively new mode of ventilation, that only
became commercially available in the United States in the mid-1990s. Airway pressure …

Airway pressure release ventilation was introduced to clinical practice about two decades
ago as an alternative mode for mechanical ventilation; however, it had not gained popularity …

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) was first described in 1987 and defined as
continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with a brief release while allowing the patient to …

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) was originally described as a mode to treat lung-
injured patients with the goal to maintain a level of airway pressure that would not depress …

BACKGROUND Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is used both as a rescue
therapy for patients with acute lung injury and as a primary mode of ventilation. Unlike assist …

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) results in collapse of alveoli and therefore poor
oxygenation. In this article, we review airway pressure release ventilation (APRV), a mode of …
