Compare continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and positive end-expiratory pressurePEEP.
What will be an ideal response?
In comparing continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and PEEP, PEEP exerts a more negative effect on the cardiac output as it raises the mPaw (and PIP) proportionally. The effect of PEEP can be detrimental to the cardiac output because PEEP is the end-expiratory pressure used in addition to positive pressure ventilation. In CPAP, the pressure includes only the airway pressure during spontaneous breathing.
