Desat

Hi.

Have you ever seen a patient on a monitor desatting with IPV?

There is this video on YouTube, where this little baby is desaturating with

his IPV Treatment.

Could someone try to explain that to me?

I am just a little bit curious about that.

His mom told me that his lungs get relaxed with IPV, and that he tends to get REALLY apneic, but all IPV does, is try to loosen up secretions.

Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation.
