Comparison of automatic versus constant CPAP in elderly patients after major abdominal surgery: a randomized noninferiority trial
Both CPAP techniques prevent pulmonary decline in geriatric patients post-surgery. While automatic CPAP provides better comfort, constant CPAP improves oxygenation. Although our findings are short-term, they suggest that CPAP mode selection should be tailored based on patient-specific needs.
