Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) is indicated in situations where a patient is unable to breathe adequately on their own, such as in cases of respiratory failure, severe Asthma exacerbations, or during anesthesia. It is also used in conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations and pneumonia, where maintaining adequate oxygenation and ventilation is critical. Additionally, PPV can be employed during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to support oxygenation in patients who are not breathing.
