Noninvasive respiratory assistance as aid for respiratory care in neuromuscular disorders
Chronic respiratory failure is a common complication of neuromuscular disease. The use of noninvasive ventilation and mechanically assisted cough can reduce symptoms of hypoventilation, slow lung function decline, improve sleep quality, and in some cases

Extracorporeal CO2 removal in hypercapnic patients who fail noni nvasive ventialtion and refuse endotracheal intubation. a case series [PDF]
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) represents the standard of care for patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, NIV fails in almost 40% of the most severe forms of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure and patients must ...

Late respiratory alkalosis during home mechanical ventilation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
This demonstrative case report shows how changes in the patient's ventilatory pattern can radically modify the results of home noninvasive mechanical ventilation, and can even generate complications associated with noninvasive ventilation such as ...

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