3First Reference to CPAP in Pub MedRevival of
an Old Battle Intermittent vs. Continuous
Positive-Pressure Breathing
- Continuous Pressure Breathing effective in WWII
for high altitude pilots, but increases work of
breathing and decreases cardiac output. - Advantages of CPB over IPB
- Improved oxygenation at lower FiO2
- Disadvantages of CPP over IPB
- Need to measure CO
- Indicated only in cases where alveolar pressure
is not transmitted to the intra plural spaces - Alveolar rupture and Pneumothorax

6Status of Hyaline Membrane Disease Late 1960s
- HMD was leading cause of death for preterms
(27-43 survival with assisted ventilation
worldwide) 1968-1971 - Ventilation resulted in Bronchopulmonary
Dysplasia (oxygen toxicity) Northway (1967) - No antenatal testing for lung maturation
(Gluck, 1971) - No antenatal corticosteroids (Liggins 1972)
- No surfactant treatments (Fujuwara 1980)
- No effective therapy other than supplemental
oxygen
VIENNA-09
7Information about HMD in Late 1960s
- Atelectasis in HMD interfered with oxygenation
- Normal lungs contained surfactant (Clements
1957) - HMD lungs were surfactant deficient (Avery and
Mead 1959) - Intubation of HMD infants abolished grunting and
decreased oxygenation (Harrison, et al., 1968) - Ventilation with a long Ti increased oxygenation
(Smith, et al., 1969)

20From Gregory, et al., NEJM - 1971
- We did not consider an elevation in Paco2 to be
an indicator for mechanical ventilation as long
as pH was greater than 7.20. - Footnote for physiologic data
- Order NAPS document 01448 from National Auxiliary
Publications Service (the physiologic data has
been lost)

21CPAP Worked and Rapid Innovation Occurred
- Continuous negative Pressure (Chernick and
Vidyasargar 1972) - Fanaroff, et al. (1973)
- Pressurized bag over head (Barrie, 1973)
- Mask that covers the mouth and nose (Harris,
1972) - Nasal CPAP (Kattwinkel, et al., 1973)
- Ventilation CPAP PEEP (Cumarassamy, et al.,
1973)

321980s through early 2000
- Ventilation replaced CPAP as primary therapy for
RDS - Antenatal steroids and surfactant decreased
severity of RDS - BPD was frequent in VLBW infants
33CPAP was used frequently for -
- Apnea of prematurity
- Post extubation after mechanical ventilation
- RDS in some locations (Columbia, Univ.
Scandinavia)

40CPAP in 2009 A New Enthusiasm
- Again frequently used as an initial therapy for
RDS surfactant - Early (delivery room) use popular and under study
- New types of CPAP
- Nasal CPAP Ventilatory assist (synchronized,
NAVA) - Multiple CPAP devices (NeopuF)
- High flow nasal cannula
- Variable pressure CPAP
