Evaluation of Positive Expiratory Pressure Device (PEP-device) for Treatment of Swimming Induced Pulmonary Edema (SIPE) - a Randomized Single-blinded Controlled Study
Dalarna County Council, Sweden
40 participants
Jul 2, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
In swimming induced pulmonary edema (SIPE), there is a lack of knowledge regarding optimal treatment. The present study was designed to assess the benefit of treatment with positive expiratory pressure device (PEP-device) compared to spontaneous recovery in patients with SIPE without hypoxia in the out-of-hospital environment.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria4

- years or older
- informed consent
Exclusion Criteria4
- declined consent
- suspected acute coronary syndrome
