RESUMO

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the simplest form of noninvasive ventilation. Mechanical ventilators designed to invasive ventilation, ventilators specifically designed to noninvasive ventilation (NIV-Ventilator) and continuous flow generators can provide CPAP. The objectives of this study is compare the performance of two continuous flow generators with a ventilator designed to NIV to deliver continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and compare flow generators using different oxygen pressure supplies in lung model and healthy subjects, in CPAP of 5, 10 and 15 cm H2O. It was observed that flow generators had similar performance to noninvasive ventilator if they were adjust in their best output flow, that was around 100 L/min
