Acute and chronic respiratory failure

2014
Respiratory failure (RF) can be attributed to a plethora of neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) and manifests clinically in a multitude of overt or more subtle ways. The basic principles of pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment of neurologic diseases and of RF apply concomitantly to this subset of patients.

Chronic respiratory failure in bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2021
AbstractAlthough survival has improved dramatically for extremely preterm infants, those with the most severe forms of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) fail to improve in the neonatal period and go on to develop chronic respiratory failure. When careful weaning of respiratory support is not tolerated, the difficult decision of whether or not to pursue ...

Chronic respiratory failure

2020
Abstract Chronic respiratory failure describes a clinical state when the arterial Po2 breathing air is less than 8.0 kPa, which may or may not be associated with hypercapnia (defined as Pco2 more than 6.0 kPa (45 mm Hg)). Four processes cause arterial hypoxaemia due to inefficient pulmonary gas exchange—ventilation–perfusion (V/Q ...

Chronic Respiratory Failure and Neuromuscular Disease

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2009
The outlook for children with respiratory complications of neuromuscular disease has improved significantly in the past 15 years. This has been the result of many advances in clinical care, including improved monitoring of lung function and hypoventilation during sleep; coordinated respiratory care by experienced physicians with access to specialized ...

Metabolism of procainamide in patients with chronic heart failure, chronic respiratory failure and chronic renal failure

European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1978
Fractional hydrolysis and acetylation of procainamide, acetylation of procainamide-derived p-aminobenzoic acid and plasma hydrolysis of procaine were studied in 20 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), 20 patients with chronic respiratory insufficiency (CRI) and 20 patients with chronic renal failure (RF).

Assessment of Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

Sleep Medicine Clinics
Undiagnosed chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure may be encountered during the evaluation of sleep-related breathing disorders at the sleep clinic. This article reviews the mechanism of chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure and the systematic approach to the assessment of specific sleep disorders associated with nocturnal hypoventilation ...

Pathophysiology of Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

Sleep Medicine Clinics
Chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure occurs in several conditions associated with hypoventilation. The mechanisms underlying the development of chronic hypercapnia include a combination of processes that increase metabolic CO2 production, reduce minute ventilation (V'e), or increase dead space fraction (Vd/Vt).
