Flow Proportional Pressure Support in Volunteers

NCT00866541 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Flow proportional pressure support (FPPS) is a new mode of spontaneous breathing assistance. In patients with increased respiratory resistance the role of FPPS in comparison with the pressure support assist breathing mode is still unclear. In this study the investigators evaluate objective and subjective measured data in healthy volunteers with artificial increased resistance and FPPS breathing assistance.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

DEVICE

artificial increased resistance (flow proportional pressure support)

respiratory resistance is increased by interpose of an artificial resistance tool in the in- and expiratory airways of the mechanical respirator
