I think what you describe as BiPAP is, in actual fact, PSV with PEEP. I
always thought of BiPAP as having two levels of PEEP, say 10 and 20, and
the patient being allowed to breath at the 10 level, with added support. So
BiPAP ventilation requires three different levels of pressure, not just
two.
+Glenn Abela Thanks for this Glenn.There is a big cross over with all of these NIV devices and many different names and slightly different ways of doing it - I was prob wrong to use BiPAP as example alternative terminology but often terms are used interchangably (on the old Puritan Bennet vents we used on our ICU the PSV was labeled CPAP just to confuse) - One mans BiPAP is another BiLevel - I was hoping just to get the principle of NIV across :)
