Scenario:A 68-year-old male with a history of congestive heart failure (CHF), hypertension, and coronary artery disease presents with acute dyspnea. He is experiencing worsening symptoms over the past 24 hours, including fatigue and difficulty breathing while lying flat (orthopnea). His current medications include beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and diuretics.Phase : En RouteThe patient is placed on CPAP at 10 cmH₂O. His oxygen saturation improves to 94%. However, he continues to complain of dyspnea. His blood pressure remains stable at 160/90 mmHg. Lasix (furosemide) 40 mg IV is administered as ordered.What is the primary benefit of CPAP in CHF exacerbation?
