Definition from
National Center for Biotechnology Info.:
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a type of positive airway pressure, where the air flow is introduced into the airways to maintain a continuous pressure to constantly stent the airways open, in people who are breathing spontaneously.
Example sentences:
The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of initiation of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in a referral hospital in Mexico City serving mainly patients without public health insurance coverage and to assess their level of adherence. (Archivos de Bronconeumología)
CPAP machines come in a variety of designs. Some simply provide a varying continuous stream of air, or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). (Coronavirus Today)
To eliminate snoring and prevent sleep apnea, your doctor may recommend a device called a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine (Mayo Clinic)

Definition from
own experience or research:
Liječenje primjenom kontinuirana pozitivnoga tlaka na dišne putove (CPAP) terapija je koja liječi poteškoće s disanjem jer drži gornji dišni put otvorenim tijekom cijeloga ciklusa disanja.<br />Akronim se ne prevodi.
Example sentences:
Kako bi se izbjegla stalna izmjena prenapuhnutosti i atelektaze alveola, što naročito oštećuje stanice i surfaktant u alveolama, sve se više primjenjuje kontinuirani pozitivni tlak u dišnim putevima čime se spriječava kolaps alveola. (CROSBI)
Samo djelomično, ali kontinuirano zatvaranje distalnog kraja T-cijevi stvaralo je kontinuirani pozitivni tlak u dišnim putovima pacijenta (CPAP, od engl. continuous positive airway pressure). (KLinički bolnički centar Split)
Kontinuirani pozitivni tlak u dišnim putovima (eng. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, CPAP) predstavlja kontinuiranu primjenu pozitivnog tlaka tijekom cijelog dišnog ciklusa pa tlak na kraju izdisaja (odnosno bazalna varijabla) poprima vrijednost veću od 0 kPa. Kao takav, CPAP ne pridonosi smanjenju dišnog rada izravno, već se njegovom primjenom mali dišni putevi održavaju otvorenima što povećava FRC, pridonosi povećanju popustljivosti, olakšava udisaj i time poboljšava oksigenaciju (Repozitorij Medicinskog fakulteta)
