Is non-invasive ventilation the best ventilatory support for 'do not intubate' patients?
response to the article by Schortgen and colleagues [2], who emphasised the use of non-invasive ventilation in the ICU as the best ventilatory treatment for ‘do not intubate’ octogenarian patients. Scala and Esquinas argued that ICU beds are scarce and that the ICU environ ment alters contact between the patient and family. We do not, however, entirely accept the views of Schortgen and colleagu...
متن کاملDomiciliary non-invasive ventilatory devices--a general hospital experience.
Treatment for chronic respiratory failure has advanced since the introduction of domiciliary non-invasive ventilatory devices. This has given a new light of hope for patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to various causes. We report a series of patients with respiratory failure of different origins and types of management that they received. Four patients received bilevel positive...
متن کاملDiscontinuing mechanical ventilatory support.
The ventilator discontinuation process is a critical component of ICU care. Ongoing ventilator dependency is caused by both disease factors (eg, respiratory, cardiac, metabolic, and neuromuscular) and clinician management factors (eg, failing to recognize discontinuation potential and inappropriate ventilator settings/management). A multispecialty evidence-based task force has recommended a ser...
متن کاملWeaning from ventilatory support.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In intubated patients, mechanical ventilation offers essential ventilatory support, while the respiratory system recovers from acute respiratory failure. Yet, invasive mechanical ventilation is associated with risks and complications that prolong the duration of mechanical ventilation and increase the risk for death. Therefore, safely weaning the patient from the ventilator as...
متن کاملStrategies for ventilatory support.
Since the introduction of manual positive pressure ventilation during the Copenhagen polio epidemic of 1952, a range of mechanical devices and methods of ventilatory support have been developed to provide life-saving respiratory therapy to critically ill patients. In addition to the development of the equipment hardware to enable effective mechanical ventilation, there has been a gradual realis...
