How CPAP (continuous positive pressure ventilation) is making a massive difference JEMS

CPAP changed my life😊

I started using like 7 months ago and my heart doesn’t work hard anymore while I’m just sitting

I am a CPAP user. My mom suffers from COPD due to my late father's smoking habit but now I can give her some valuable information. Thank you for sharing this and be blessed.

[@minecraftstopmoshen1359]

Thank you. This was an excellent, clear, and understandable explanation of how CPAP helps.

finally i understood the concept behind cpap. thanks

Really nicely presented. Excellent recap. Keep up the great work

great lesson and teaching. thanks so much for putting it all together.

[@ephesians2633]

I commend you on the use of the toilet as an example for pulmonary edema I haven’t heard that one befor but it really Makes sense

[@jessicaann4374]

Such a great explanation. I'm in classes to become an EMT and they have a fairly poor explanation of CPAP in my book. This is much more helpful.

[@Rk-su9yj]

This is the best explanation ! Thank you so much!

[@jesserobitaille7234]

Very well explained. I licked the analogy of traffic jams.

I licked it too. It was a bit salty.

[@ilyanoselovich2030]

Why CPAP is not able to increase TIDAL VOLIUME directly? It seems that CPAP can extend the lungs and increases FRC. Maybe the reason is that during expirium the patients have to overcome the High pressure of CPAP? Is this the reason why it doesn't able to ventilate (affect TV)? The air remains stuck in the lungs. In BPAP the patient deals with lower pressure during expirium. Is there something else that pressure support above peep does?

[@23popa]

I had adenoides when I was young, now it came bavk, can I just get an operation and remove them? I cant sleep with that machine in my face... why dont we just get and operariin in Nortg America? Is it because of the business this cpap machine represents? Im going abroad and probably get an operariin done

[@warunakumara7671]

sir great explanation , sir iam from srilanka , in these covid situation lot of doctors in srilanka mostly use highflow oxygen therapy without going for intubating the patient they say if the patient was intubated its difficult to recover from the covid sir is this true , i also work in the health care sector in srilanka, most of covid patients intubated by them use only simv vc mode they never go to bilevel or aprv want to know sir can we cure a covid pnemonia lung condition from simv vc mode , sir please be kind enough to guide us , if you can sir please do a separate video series about covid and mechanical ventilation or highflow oxygen therapy , please guide us which is more effective to cure covid lung condition

[@authman-alshibly]

At 8:11 of the video, you said vascular resistance, while I am sure you meant venous return. One other thing I would like to inquire about here, is what plays more role when using a CPAP in CHF patients, is it the positive pressure created by the device that leads to decreased preload and decreased afterload which eventually leads to decreased SV and CO, or the baroreceptors inside the AORTA?

[@RZP67]

So as a respiratory therapist of 15 years cpap is not indicated for CHF exacerbations rather NIPPV or bibap.

[@beachbumEd]

Hope you can answer this: Been using Cpap for 15+ years. Works very well to stop apnoea. I do have COPD as im a smoker and having difficulty giving up. When I wake in the morning I cough for a few hours so presume it’s that fluid / water you mentioned. But perhaps it’s also my lungs clearing the cigarette tar etc? So my question is: if the water is flooding the alveoli isn’t that a negative effect of COAP therapy. If the mucous plugs that are caused by using CPAP block the volume of air isn’t that counter productive? Finally using the humidifier would that contribute to the moisture in the inhaled air. So is it correct to say limiting the temperature would decrease the water build up in the lungs?

[@TheBrothergreen]

Water should not be collecting in your lungs. Using a CPAP may be a possible treatment for pulmonary edema (water in lungs). Neither the humidifier on a cpap nor a high ambient humidity will cause pulmonary edema. Cpap can irritate pulmonary system and cause dry cough. Usually more moisture would be indicated, in that instance, not less. Talk to your dr about fluids in your lungs.

[@itrop9952]

I had two questions 1. If its taken one time the patient needs to use it forever? 2. For normal and moderate Sleep apnoea patient is it recommened?

[@TheBrothergreen]

1) Generally, it's a long term care device. 2) The diagnostic criteria is 15 apneas/hour or 5/hr with additional symptoms

[@TheBrothergreen]

Literally the first thing you said in this video is wrong. Atmosphere is positive pressure. Cpap increases pressure. Cpap is mechanically the same as breathing normally. The cpap is not a bicycle pump, it is an assistive device. 10mm h20 = sea level 10mm h20 on cpap = double that

[@eddiefiola7176]

Does this prevent the lung crackling in the morning while stretching?

[@TheBrothergreen]

Nope. As soon as the device is removed, all benefits of positive airway pressure end. Unless you leave the device on during stretches?

[@andrevshimself]

So if I just blow air into my nose, would that work as a cpap?

[@NorthernSweetPea]

Oh aren't you the clever boy?

[@trento8397]

CPAP is not oxygen, just same air as we breathe

[@TheBrothergreen]

Most Cpap devices are compatible with external O2 if indicated.

You're confusing a mask with a plastic bag.
