Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation in the treatment of respiratory failure in obstructive sleep apnoea.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Severe respiratory failure in a patient with obstructive sleep apnoea was treated successfully with nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation. Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation is a non-invasive method of respiratory support originally developed for the treatment of chest wall and neuromuscular disorders.'2 Recent studies suggest that this technique may be applicable to a broader range of respiratory problems, including respiratory failure arising from chronic obstructive airways disease.34 Most patients with obstructive sleep apnoea respond to treatment with continuous positive airways pressure.56 Occasionally patients present with such severe respiratory failure that endotracheal intubation and conventional intermittent positive pressure ventilation are needed. We describe a patient with obstructive sleep apnoea, presenting with severe respiratory failure, who was successfully managed with nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation.

Early Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) versus Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (NCPAP) for Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) in Infants of 28-36 weeks gestational age: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Early nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) has emerged as a primary modality of respiratory support for preterm infants withrespiratory distress syndrome (RDS). However, 30%-40% of these newborns need subsequent mechanical ventilation. Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is a promising alternative to NCPAP, especially in po...

livery of mechanical ventilation to patients with respiratory failure without the requirement of an artificial airway. The key change that led to the recent increase in the use of this technique occurred in the early 1980s with the introduction of the nasal continuous positive airway pressure mask for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. Studies published in the 1990s that evaluated the ef...

Efficiency of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation in the treatment of respiratory failure has been shown in many published studies. In this review article, we introduced new modalities of non-invasive ventilation (NIV), clinical settings in which NIV can be used and a practical summary of the latest official guidelines published by the European Respiratory Clinical Practice. Clinical tri...

BACKGROUND Domiciliary assisted ventilation, using negative or positive pressure devices, is an effective treatment for respiratory failure due to chest wall deformity and neuromuscular disease. Negative pressure ventilators have been used with some success in patients with chronic obstructive lung disease in hospital, but attempts to continue treatment at home have been disappointing. This stu...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Treatment Response of Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Preterm Infants: Early Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation versus Early Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
Background Infant respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS) is one of the main causes of serious complications and death in preterm infants. Both Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (NCPAP) and Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) are known as the most common treatment strategies for IRDS. The present study intended to compare NCPAP and NIPPV in the treatment of preterm inf...
