Question
Chapter 17, Problem 3CAQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether the statement, “The respiratory care practitioner’s role includes CPAP compliance monitoring,” is true or false.
Introduction:
The CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) is one of the forms of positive airway pressure ventilator. This device applies pressure to keep the airways open continuously in those people who cannot take breathe on their own. It is another option of positive end-expiratory pressure. It is used in those people who have breathing disorders, such as in sleep apnea.
Please refer to Clinical Application Case-1 for further information.

When assisting the client with inhaled medication the right positioning of the client is the key. The client should always sit in the upright position that will expand the lungs and make the medication more effective.
