Thank you for this!! I had to transport a pt on bipap who refused to go any other way, I watched this video literally in the hall outside the room. Pt tolerated it just fine
We have the Revel for use in our ED to setup NPPV and Intubated patients. My staff does not like to use it for NPPV especially, patients with beards. More times than not, we get an "blower exceeded" alarm. We adjust the mask and check seal, and adjust various parameters to correct it but it doesn't seem to help. It even shuts down! Anyway, just wondered if you ever come across that problem? Thanks for your videos!
These machines do NPPV but it’s passable at best, do you have a v60 in your ED? It would be optimal, the medics and transport nurses I train will often give up on these and use a go-mask for transport. Is your staff going through the steps to convert it to nppv?
@@henrythatrtguy6448 Fortunately the Revel is leased and the lease runs out in November so we are definitely going to get rid of it. As for a replacement, we are strongly looking at the V60s they seem to be robust and have a good reputation. As for transport NPPV machines there appears a trade off you must accept, small size versus the ability to compensate for leaks.

You're so welcome!
Awesome video. Thank you. My critical care just got a little better lol.
If ipap- epap = pressure support why then u go on the revel and change pressure control when pressure support is right next to it ????
