A continuous high flow CPAP system incorporating a turbine blower is described. The system achieves inspiratory flow rates of 150 l/min or more by means of reticulated gas flow and inspired oxygen fractions of 0.21-0.95. Positive airway pressure is provided by weighted disc valves and a modified aviation-type CPAP face mask provides electronic communication with the patient. The mobility of the system also enables its use as an intermittent physiotherapy aid. Work of breathing of the system, as assessed by total pressure fluctuations is at a minimum.
描述了一种包含涡轮鼓风机的持续高流量持续气道正压通气(CPAP)系统。该系统通过网状气流实现150升/分钟或更高的吸气流量,吸入氧分数为0.21 - 0.95。气道正压由配重圆盘阀提供,改良的航空型CPAP面罩实现与患者的电子通信。该系统的移动性还使其能够用作间歇性物理治疗辅助设备。通过总压力波动评估,该系统的呼吸功处于最低水平。
