Indexing Annotation
do not confuse with INTERMITTENT POSITIVE-PRESSURE BREATHING: IPPV is on a ventilator, IPPB is spontaneous; in the literature BIPAP (BIPHASIC INTERMITTENT POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE) goes here and BiPAP (BIPHASIC CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE) goes under CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE
