The lower pressure is referred to as the Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP). Similar to CPAP, the patient breathes against the lower pressure, benefitting from the “splinting” effect and contributing to lung recruitment. At the end of inspiration, as the patient exhales, the pressure drops back down to the baseline lower pressure. BiPAP can also be referred to as non-invasive ventilation or NIV.īiPAP or NIV senses that the patient is starting their inspiration and bumps up the pressure to a higher set pressure. Since BiPAP contributes to the clearance of CO 2, it is a method of ventilation. Similar to invasive mechanical ventilation, BiPAP can aid in correcting high CO 2 from respiratory failure. By helping augment the patient’s natural tidal volume, BiPAP allows the patient to exhale more carbon dioxide. The most significant difference between CPAP and BiPAP centers around the supportive inspiratory pressure that BiPAP can deliver. BiPAP is the NIV method that is used in hospitals when indicated for a patient. Where BiPAP differs from CPAP is when the patient starts to initiate a breath: BiPAP changes to a higher pressure where CPAP stays constant. In BiPAP, the pressure starts at a baseline pressure (similar to CPAP) that remains throughout inspiration and expiration. Just as the name suggests, it is “biphasic,” or unfolding in two phases: inspiration and expiration. Therefore, BiPAP is the application of two separate pressures to the patient via the circuit-and-mask interface. “Bi” means two, and you already know that “PAP” refers to positive airway pressure. LEGO® bricks and pieces are dropped, heated, crushed, twisted and analyzed to make sure your child's building set meets the highest safety and quality standards in the world.The term Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) also is fairly self-explanatory.
