PEEP
A PEEP refers to a positive atmospheric pressure artificially produce in the lung during ventilation, which exists in the lung after exhalation (expiration) has completed. This pressure prevents the pulmonary alveoli from collapsing, thus preventing atelectasis. In many cases this allows the oxygen saturation to be improved.

1.4 Safety Instructions 1.4.1 Always Observe
Use of the fabian therapy requires detailed knowledge manual. This equipment is only intended for the described use.
fabian therapy is only to be used by trained professionals or under their supervision to ensure prompt remedial action in the event of malfunction.
If the rotary encoder is not explicitly pressed by the operator the set value will automatically be accepted after a few seconds.
Always have an alternate method of ventilation accessible (e.g. bag valve mask) when using the fabian therapy.
If the life-support function is no longer warranted due to a noticeable defect in the fabian therapy, the patient must immediately be artificially ventilated using a stand-alone ventilator (e.g. bag valve mask).
Never use the fabian along with flammable gasses or anaesthetics - acute fire and explosion hazard!
Never use the fabian therapy in explosive environments!
