Acute neuromuscular respiratory paralysis.
This article reviews the recognition, diagnosis and management of respiratory failure in acute neuromuscular disease. Respiratory failure requiring artificial ventilation occurs in about 14% of patients with Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS),' a small percentage of patients with myasthenia gravis and polymyositis, and also in acute rhabdomyolysis and a wide range of other less common disorders (tab...
متن کاملRespiratory involvement in neuromuscular disease.
72 © Royal College of Physicians 2014. All rights reserved. In neuromuscular disease (NMD), respiratory muscle weakness (RMW) is common and death often results from respiratory failure. RMW initially causes sleep-related hypoventilation, with sleep disruption. With progression, daytime respiratory failure ensues. Bulbar muscle weakness causes diffi culty with speech and swallowing, often compli...
متن کاملRespiratory failure in neuromuscular diseases.
A series is reported of five patients with acute respiratory failure complicating neuromuscular diseases, three of whom required assisted ventilation. Initially the arterial carbon dioxide tension fell to levels below the normal range in all the patients and this change reflects alveolar hyperventilation which is probably produced by a combination of fear, small airway collapse, and reflex tach...
متن کاملNeuromuscular Dysfunction in Experimental Sepsis and Glutamine.
BACKGROUND Electrophysiological studies show that critical illness polyneuromyopathy appears in the early stage of sepsis before the manifestation of clinical findings. The metabolic response observed during sepsis causes glutamine to become a relative essential amino acid. AIMS We aimed to assess the changes in neuromuscular transmission in the early stage of sepsis after glutamine supplemen...
متن کاملNeuromuscular disease causing acute respiratory failure.
In the developed world, Guillain-Barré syndrome and myasthenia gravis account for the majority of cases of acute respiratory failure associated with neuromuscular disease. The 4 components that contribute to respiratory failure are upper-airway dysfunction, inspiratory-muscle weakness, expiratory-muscle weakness, and the pulmonary complications associated with these conditions. Careful observat...
