The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance, the tolerability and the efficacy on gas-exchange of different CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) systems.
Three CPAP systems are studied for each patient at the same level of PEEP: 1) continuous high-flow CPAP with fixed value PEEP valve; 2) continuous high-flow CPAP with Boussignac PEEP valve; 3) demand flow CPAP, supplied by a ventilator.
