What are the opposite words for Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation?
Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (IPPV) is a method of breathing support in which an airway is intermittently ventilated with positive pressure. Some antonyms for IPPV could be spontaneous breathing, non-invasive ventilation, or non-mechanical ventilation. Spontaneous breathing refers to natural breathing without any external respiratory support. Non-invasive ventilation is a type of respiratory support that maintains positive pressure on the airway using a face mask or nasal prongs without invasive measures such as intubation. Non-mechanical ventilation is a type of ventilation that doesn't use machines, such as manual resuscitation bags, to provide breathing support. These antonyms represent different methods of respiratory support that can be used in place of IPPV depending on the patient and their condition.
