Management of Mechanical Ventilation in Decompensated Heart Failure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for respiratory failure, including decompensated congestive heart failure. MV can reduce ventricular preload and afterload, decrease extra-vascular lung water, and decrease the work of breathing ...

Long-term survival following initiation of home non-invasive ventilation: a European study

open access: yesThorax, 2020
Introduction Although home non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is increasingly used to manage patients with chronic ventilatory failure, there are limited data on the long-term outcome of these patients.

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.

Twenty-Four Hour Noninvasive Ventilation in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: A Safe Alternative to Tracheostomy

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2013
BACKGROUND: Almost all patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) eventually develop respiratory failure. Once 24 h ventilation is required, either due to incomplete effectiveness of nocturnal noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or bulbar weakness, it is ...
