Abstract

Objective To investigate the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation in the treatment of neurogenic pulmonary edema. Method 64 patients with neurogenic pulmonary edema were treated with the timely use of positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) ventilation. Then the curative effect was observed. Result The symptoms of hypoxia, pulmonary edema were had a rapid improvement in ventilation with PEEP. the improvementof heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, partial pressure of oxygen, carbon dioxide partial pressure had significant difference compared with that before treatment(P < 0.01). Conclusion Neurogenic pulmonary edema patients treated with PEEP therapy had goved clinical effect. Key words: Pulmonary edema; Continuous positive airway pressure; Ventilators,mechanical
