In medicine, intermittent positive-pressure breathing IPPB) is "application of positive pressure to the inspiratory phase of spontaneous respiration."[1]
IPPB is in contrast to intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) which is "application of positive pressure to the inspiratory phase when the patient has an artificial airway in place and is connected to a ventilator."[2]
Intermittent positive-pressure breathing have been shown not to help pneumonia in a small randomized controlled trial.[3]
