Summary

Acute respiratory failure is a medical emergency rapidly leading to death, if not timely treated. Prompt Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) improves patient outcomes. However, pre-hospital CPAP is currently limited to healthcare providers due to the absence of easy-to-use and immediate devices specifically designed for the non-medical population.

The efficacy and usability of a new portable CPAP device will be assessed. This device is specifically designed for potential use in out-of-hospital scenarios involving acute respiratory failure. The evaluation will focus not only on the performance of the device but also on its easiness of use.

Conditions

  • Healthy
  • Respiratory Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

Portable CPAP efficacy

The device will be tested in providing a PEEP comprised between 4-7,5 cmH2O

DEVICE

Portable CPAP usability assessment

The device usability will be evaluated in individual's self-experience tests, i.e., in conditions where the volunteer will self-apply the device.
