	Positive Pressure Isolation Rooms from Airmont
		Positive Pressure Isolation Rooms maintain a flow of air out of the room, thus protecting the patient from possible contaminants and pathogens which might otherwise enter.
		Anterooms are recommended and the air pressure differential criteria as described for TB Rooms applies similarly.
		One solution is to house the positive pressure (HIV) room within a negative pressure (TB) room, or vice-versa, which would be similar to a pair of nested biohazard levels.

	Positive Pressure Ventilation - Vent-Axia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Positive Pressure Ventilation introduces outside dryer air into the dwelling where it is mixed with the internal air, lowering the total moisture content, and gently removing the moist air, either through natural leakage or via specified devices that open and close automatically depending on temperature, moisture content or both.
		In the domestic environment positive pressure ventilation mixes this wasted heat at high level, with the dryer outside air and circulates it, firstly across the room at ceiling level, then to the rest of the room volume, without causing cold draughts.
		Compact positive pressure fans are an ideal and economical means of ventilation for smaller flats,especially if the occupier is a single parent or elderly.

	Colorado Doorways, Inc.® - Positive Pressure Information
		Positive pressure is a new type of fire testing for doors and hardware that is now being adopted in the U.S. market.
		In the positive pressure test, air is drawn into the test chamber through the clearances at the bottom of the door / frame / hardware assembly, while pressure tends to force smoke through the clearances at the top of the assembly.
		In technical terms, the positive pressure test moves the neutral pressure plane from the top of the opening, where it was in the old test.

	Steelcraft - Application Solutions - Articles - Preparing For Positive Pressure
		There's been a lot of talk about positive pressure, but the talking is over, the door and hardware industry will adapt to it as it has every other code change, and life will go on.
		With positive pressure, the neutral pressure plane is lowered to a standard 40 inches off the floor, so regardless of door height, the neutral pressure axis is defined from the floor upward.
		After many years of debate, positive pressure is a reality, and it's time for the industry to move ahead and "play the hand we're dealt." Tests, after all, only measure door performance under a standard set of conditions.

	Positive Pressure Ventilation
		During positive pressure ventilation, high-performance fans are positioned outside the building and a stream of fresh air is applied.
		The light initial positive pressure sets the air masses in the building in motion in the direction of an existing opening, such as a window or smoke flap etc., or one that is subsequently created.
		During positive pressure ventilation, the air flow can be controlled by opening and closing doors and windows, which is most important during evacuation procedures.

	Positive Peer Pressure: Peer Support is Peer Pressure Gone Good
		Peer pressure is a successful tool for bullies because it preys on this human need that surfaces most readily in adolescence to fit in and belong to a group.
		Youth workers and programs make positive youth development happen when they intentionally provide services and engage youth in activities within a safe environment that allow them to express themselves, feel part of a group, test new skills and experience achievement.
		The reality is that if not guided toward positive choices and provided with ample opportunities to explore, express and garner attention, youth will create their own opportunities or find avenues that may not be those deemed socially acceptable.

	Dealing With Peer Pressure
		For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them, your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to shoplift with him.
		Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don't go along with the group.
		For example, positive peer pressure can be used to pressure bullies into acting better toward other kids.

	Consensus Conference: Noninvasive Positive Pressure Vendlation
		NIPPV was defined as the application of positive pressure via the upper respiratory tract for the purpose of augmenting alveolar ventilation.
		During volume-targeted ventilation, this pressure is a consequence of the set tidal volume and lung mechanics.
		Pressure modes (pressure assist, pressure support, or pressure control) are preferred during acute respiratory failure because flow adjusts to meet the requirements of the patient.

	Positive Pressure Ventilation
		Described as the 'wave of the future' in 1984; 'a giant step forward in firefighter safety'; and, 'the greatest innovation since the introduction of breathing apparatus', it is certain that Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV) made a big impression upon firefighters in the 1980s.
		This approach (since termed Positive Pressure Attack (PPA)) was researched by the Fire and Rescue Services Division of the North Carolina Department of Insurance in 1988/9, focusing upon the use of PPV as a viable strategy in structural firefighting terms.
		Test Four: In this test two hoselines were positioned approximately 30 metres downwind from the exhaust opening, using 45mm lines with combination spray nozzles on a narrow pattern, rotating the spray streams in large circles.

	Positive Pressure vs. Negative Pressure - ABXZone.com Forums
		Obviously if you blow more in then you suck out, then the case should be positively pressured (manometer leg open to atmoshpere should be higher than leg attached to case).
		I would prefer to have positive pressure because, as was mentioned, it keeps your computer cleaner.
		I think it will be hard to have a positive or negative pressure, the air does not only escape with the fans blowing it out, there are also many openings in the case for the air to escape.

	Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)
		The mask does not breathe for you; the flow of air creates enough pressure when you inhale to keep your airway open.
		CPAP is considered the most effective nonsurgical treatment for the alleviation of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
		Before receiving the nasal mask, you would need to have the proper CPAP pressure set during a "sleep study." This will complete the evaluation necessary for prescribing the appropriate treatment for your needs.
