Indications for Use
Indicated for treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in spontaneously breathing patients weighing >30 kg. Contraindicated for patients with bullous lung disease, pathologically low blood pressure, bypassed upper airway, pneumothorax, or pneumocephalus. Use caution in patients with CSF leaks, cribriform plate abnormalities, prior head trauma, or active sinus/middle ear infections.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A noncontinuous ventilator (intermittent positive pressure breathing-IPPB) is a device intended to deliver intermittently an aerosol to a patient's lungs or to assist a patient's breathing.
