Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the effectiveness of prehospital continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in treating respiratory failure compared to standard oxygen therapy, referencing conflicting previous research.
- The research followed PRISMA guidelines and analyzed data from several databases, focusing on randomized trials that looked at in-hospital mortality risks between the two treatment methods.
- The analysis included 747 patients using prehospital CPAP and showed no significant difference in mortality rates compared to the standard treatment, indicating a need for more extensive randomized trials to determine the true effectiveness of CPAP in these scenarios.
