objective neuromuscular disorders (diseases of the motor unit), can cause respiratory problems such as impaired cough reflex, chest deformity, recurrent pneumonia and acute respiratory failure; these are the worst most common complications of these diseases and the leading cause of death in such patients (1, 2). their management hence, very often, entails admission to the pediatric intensive ca...
The predictive factors for long-term dependency (LTD) on noninvasive ventilation (NIV) immediately after acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) have not been identified. The present authors studied 42 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 58 non-COPD patients successfully treated by NIV for an AHRF episode. Parameters at stable state, at admission for AHRF and dur...
Sleep related respiratory dysfunction and vocal cord paralysis are considered to be the major factors responsible for respiratory failure in multiple system atrophy (MSA). We report a patient initially presenting with alveolar hypoventilation culminating in respiratory failure, ultimately diagnosed as MSA. No central sleep apnea or marked paralysis of the vocal cords was noted. The most likely ...
NIV is an effective strategy in specific settings and in selected population with AHRF. To date, evidence on ECCO2R is based only on case reports and case-control trials. Although the preliminary results using ECCO2R to decrease the rate of NIV failure and to wean hypercapnic patients from invasive ventilation are remarkable; further randomized studies are needed to assess the effects of this t...
Respiratory failure occurs due mainly either to lung failure resulting in hypoxaemia or pump failure resulting in alveolar hypoventilation and hypercapnia. Hypercapnic respiratory failure may be the result of mechanical defects, central nervous system depression, imbalance of energy demands and supplies and/or adaptation of central controllers. Hypercapnic respiratory failure may occur either a...
OBJECTIVE To discuss the clinical indications and complications of non-invasive ventilation. DATA SOURCES A review of articles published in peer-reviewed journals from 1966 to 1998 and identified through a MEDLINE search on non-invasive ventilation. SUMMARY OF REVIEW Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been used in patients with respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, acu...
Neuromuscular respiratory failure is a rare complication of systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis. We describe a case of a 70-year-old Caucasian man with multiple myeloma who presented with worsening dyspnea. The patient was diagnosed with and treated for congestive heart failure but continued to suffer from hypercapnic respiratory insufficiency. He had restrictive physiology on pulmo...
The treatment of choice for patients with respiratory failure of neuromuscular origin, especially in patients with hypercapnic respiratory acidosis, is noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Endotracheal intubation and invasive ventilation are indicated for patients with severe respiratory compromise or failure of NIV. In recent years, high-flow oxygen therapy and active humidification devices have bee...
