Home Mechanical Ventilation

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1988
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 ...

Pediatric Home Mechanical Ventilation

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1987
Infants 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.

Home Mechanical Ventilation

2023
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 ...

Mechanical Ventilation in the Home

Critical Care Clinics, 1990
Despite advances in the application of mechanical ventilation as a short-term, life-saving technique, intensive care units are increasingly faced with patients who cannot be weaned from ventilatory assistance and who require mechanical ventilation as a long-term, life-supporting necessity.

Home Mechanical Ventilators

2010
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

2019
The first patients on home mechanical ventilation were treated already about 80 years ago. The technical development of compact, easy to use and less expensive ventilators contributes to a still increasing number of patients with home mechanical ventilation.

Home Mechanical Ventilation in Children

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2015
The number of children dependent on home mechanical ventilation has been reported to be increasing in many countries around the world. Home mechanical ventilation has been well accepted as a standard treatment of children with chronic respiratory failure. Some children may need mechanical ventilation as a lifelong therapy.

Home Mechanical Ventilation: An Overview

Annals of the American Thoracic Society, 2016
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, for weaning from invasive ...

Current Issues in Home Mechanical Ventilation

Chest, 2007
As 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), 2015
Few 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 ...
