Non Invasive Ventilation After Cardiac Surgery (CPAP-CCH)

March 20, 2018 updated by: Giovanni Landoni, Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele

Effectiveness of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Outside the Intensive Care Unit After Cardiac Surgery

Patients with respiratory failure following cardiac surgery are randomized to receive standard therapy versus non invasive ventilation. The hypothesis is that patients receiving non invasive ventilation will perform better than those who received standard therapy.
