Invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesMedicine, 2012
Early recognition of patients who might potentially require ventilatory support is a key goal of critical care outreach programs and an important skill for all hospital medical staff. Decisions about the initiation and timing of invasive ventilation can be difficult and early discussion with critical care colleagues is essential.

Non-invasive mechanical ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 2001
We read with interest the study by Moretti et al concerning the incidence and causes of failure of non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) after initial success.1 It is an interesting study, but some important factors associated with the initial treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) which could influence the results of the study ...

Effect of body position on the redistribution of regional lung aeration during invasive and non-invasive ventilation of COVID-19 patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Severe COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (C-ARDS) requires mechanical ventilation. While this intervention is often performed in the prone position to improve oxygenation, the underlying mechanisms responsible for the improvement in ...

Non-invasive respiratory support for preterm infants following extubation from mechanical ventilation. A narrative review and guideline suggestion

open access: yesPediatrics and Neonatology, 2020
The recent introduction of different non-invasive ventilation modes for preterm has decreased the need for intubation, invasive ventilation and sedation. However, specific guidelines for each non-invasive mode are still lacking.

Non-invasive ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 1996
Summary Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation is an effective treatment for nocturnal hypoventilation secondary to chest wall deformity or respiratory muscle weakness. Physicians should be aware that, in these groups of patients, disabling breathlessness can be alleviated and established cor pulmonale reversed by the technique.

Association Between Early Invasive Mechanical Ventilation and Day-60 Mortality in Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure Related to Coronavirus Disease-2019 Pneumonia

open access: yesCritical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. About 5% of patients with coronavirus disease-2019 are admitted to the ICU for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Opinions differ on whether invasive mechanical ventilation should be used as first-line therapy over noninvasive oxygen ...
