Non-invasive mechanical ventilation in status asthmaticus

Intensive Care Medicine, 2001
To evaluate our clinical experience with the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) in patients with an acute asthmatic attack.Seven-year period retrospective observational study.General intensive care department (ICU) of a county hospital.From 1992 to 1998, we documented clinical data, gas exchange and outcome of every asthmatic patient ...

[Weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation].

Medizinische Klinik, Intensivmedizin und Notfallmedizin, 2021
Weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation is challenging for the ICU team in terms of shortening time of ventilation via endotracheal tube in order to improve the patient's prognosis by early extubation. Thereby prolonged mechanical ventilation (> 14 days), which is associated with risk of tracheotomy and prolonged weaning, shall be avoided.

Modern Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation Turns 25

Archivos de Bronconeumología (English Edition), 2013
The history of non-invasive mechanical ventilation goes back more than 100 years, but it was not until 1987 when what we could call "modern" non-invasive mechanical ventilation was developed. The description of Delaubier and Rideau of a patient with Duchenne's disease who had been effectively ventilated through a nasal mask marked the start of a new ...

Withdrawal of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

2023
Abstract The withdrawal of invasive mechanical ventilation is done to allow a natural death. Families may or may not be at the bedside according to their preference. Patients dependent on mechanical ventilation are at very high risk for experiencing respiratory distress during and after withdrawal.

Modes of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

2018
The ventilator mode refers to the way the ventilator interacts with the patient. Assist control (AC) is one of the most commonly used modes of ventilation, set to either target a desired pressure or volume. Pressure support ventilation is a partially supported, or spontaneous, pressure-controlled mode of ventilation with no set respiratory rate or ...

Chronic Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

2016
Invasive mechanical ventilation, or chronic positive pressure ventilation via tracheostomy, is used in select children when noninvasive ventilation is not feasible. The presence of a tracheostomy adds complexity to the care of these children and requires caregivers to learn an additional set of skills related to the tracheostomy itself.

Non-Invasive Ventilation and Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation

2001
Mechanical ventilation using an artificial airway is probably the most frequently used life-saving procedure in the management of critically ill patients with severe respiratory failure. However, this is associated with multiple complications [1], mainly an increased risk of nosocomial pneumonia with a high mortality rate [2–4], but also generalized ...

Emergency Pediatric Noninvasive Ventilation and Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

2020
Respiratory complaints are common conditions for children to present to emergency departments. Typically, patients respond to simple supportive treatment, whether it is airway clearance therapy, oxygen therapy, or bronchodilators. When these patients are critically ill, they often require aggressive oxygenation/ventilation with noninvasive strategies ...
