Recently, interest in the use of mechanical ventilation outside the hospital setting has been increasing. Patients with various types of chronic respiratory failure may benefit from this approach. Evaluation for long-term mechanical ventilation necessitates assessment of the underlying disease process, the goals of the medical team, and the needs of ...

Abstract Summary Mechanical ventilation is increasingly used in the home setting to provide long-term respiratory support for selected patients with chronic type 2 respiratory failure. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) via a mask is usually only required during the main sleep period for the majority of patients ...

Pediatric Home Mechanical Ventilation
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1987Infants and children with chronic respiratory failure are a byproduct of improvements in intensive care medicine. Home mechanical ventilation is an alternative to hospital care for the ventilator-assisted child. With proper preparation, safeguards, and support, these children are being successfully managed at home.

A wide variety of patients requires mechanical ventilation; therefore, it is not surprising that numerous ventilators, ventilation modes, and equipment are necessary to select the most appropriate noninvasive ventilation technology for each patient. We voluntarily limited this chapter to positive pressure ventilation modes considering that negative ...

Home Mechanical Ventilation: An Overview
Annals of the American Thoracic Society, 2016Abstract Prevalence studies have shown heterogeneous use of home mechanical ventilation in different conditions, with a marked increase in uptake especially in users of noninvasive ventilation. Although randomized controlled trials have examined noninvasive ventilation in acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ...

On becoming dependent on home mechanical ventilation
Journal of Advanced Nursing, 2004Aim. The aim of this paper is to illuminate meanings of becoming dependent on home mechanical ventilator treatment.Background. People suffering from chronic alveolar hypoventilation and requiring home mechanical ventilation represent a small but increasing group in society, and are some of the most vulnerable individuals with chronic disabilities ...

Current Issues in Home Mechanical Ventilation
Chest, 2007As modern health care continues to evolve, we expect and are seeing that more sophisticated medical care will be provided outside the traditional acute care environments. Advances in home medical technology, economic pressures, health-care consumerism, and societal changes are all factors playing a role in this evolution.

Variability in Home Mechanical Ventilation Prescription
Archivos de Bronconeumología (English Edition), 2015Few studies have analyzed the prevalence and accessibility of home mechanical ventilation (HMV). The aim of this study was to characterize the prevalence of HMV and variability in prescriptions from administrative data.Prescribing rates of HMV in the 37 healthcare sectors of the Catalan Health Service were compared from billing data from 2008 to 2011 ...

Outcome of home mechanical ventilation in children
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1985A retrospective study of the outcome of home mechanical ventilation in 54 children with chronic respiratory insufficiency was conducted. The children's ages ranged from 4 months to 18 years. Tracheostomies and positive pressure ventilation were used in 33 patients, and negative pressure ventilation in 21 patients.
