26
Inspiration to expiration ratio for IPPB
1:3
27
What is EzPAP a hybrid of
IPPB and PEP
28
What does IPPB enhance
Collateral ventilation
29
Flow range for EzPAP
5-15L/min
30
When is pressure delivered with EzPAP
Exhalation
31
What decreases the PEP received with EzPAP
Greater inspiratory flow
32
EZPAP versus IS
EZ- positive during inspiration and expiration Usually more comfortable to patients (pressure can be uncomfortable)
33
Directions for directed cough
Deep breath and hold with abdominal muscles forcing air to closed glottis Cough with a single exhalation Take several normal before next attempt
34
Huff cough directions
3-5 diaphragmatic breaths Exhale from mid to low lung (clears peripheral AW) Take normal breath and squeeze out by contracting abdominal and glottis Exhale from high to mid lung when secretions reach larger AW
35
Indication for mechanical cough assist
Trauma Muscular dystrophy Myasthenia gravis Poliomyelitis Spinal cord injury
36
What is autogenic drainage
A technique that uses large breathes out to loosen mucus in the lungs (CF kids)
37
How do you preform Auto drainage
Take a large breath in, hold in Take a small to normal breath in and hold Breath out through the mouth
38

3.3 to 10L/sec
39
Positive and negative pressure for mechanical cough assist
60 to -60 cm H2O
40
