Peri-Partum respiratory management in neuro-muscular disorders (IT-NEUMA-Pregn study): A proposal by an italian panel and a call for an international…

2023

Advances in the management of patients with neuromuscu- lar diseases (NMDs) have improved patient survival1 3 with increasing pregnancies prevalence.4 NMDs have a broad spectrum of presentation and a subgroup of these women are at risk of developing pulmonary complications (PCs) mainly due to respiratory muscle weakness leading to hypoventilation and ineffective cough

Reducing Rebreathing During Noninvasive Ventilation: Bias Flow or No Bias Flow?

2019

To the Editor : We read with interest the article by Signori et al[1][1] that evaluated CO2 rebreathing during noninvasive ventilation (NIV) via a full face mask connected to a double-limb ventilation circuit with 2 different configurations: (1) a single mask connector directly attached to the Y-

Material and Technology: Back to the Future for the Choice of Interface for Non-Invasive Ventilation – A Concise Review

2020

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has dramatically changed the treatment of both acute and chronic respiratory failure in the last 2 decades. The success of NIV is correlated to the application of the “best ingredients” of a patient’s “tailored recipe,” including the appropriate choice of the selected candidate, the ventilator setting, the interface, the expertise of the team, and the education of the caregiver. The choice of the interface is crucial for the success of NIV. Type (oral, nasal, nasal pillows, oronasal, hybrid mask, helmet), size, design, material and headgears may affect the patient’s comfort with respect to many aspects, such as air leaks, claustrophobia, skin erythema, eye irr…

Bulbar impairment score and survival of stable amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients after noninvasive ventilation initiation

2018

There is general agreement that noninvasive ventilation (NIV) prolongs survival in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and that the main cause of NIV failure is the severity of bulbar dysfunction. However, there is no evidence that bulbar impairment is a contraindication for NIV. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of bulbar impairment on survival in ALS patients with NIV. ALS patients for whom NIV was indicated were included. Those patients who refused NIV were taken as the control group. 120 patients who underwent NIV and 20 who refused NIV were included. The NIV group presented longer survival (median 18.50 months, 95% CI 12.62–24.38 months) than the no-NIV group (3.00 mont…

Tidal volume and helmet: Is the never ending story coming to an end?

2021

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been increasingly used in acute care setting with various indications, but its use in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) is controversial. In this setting, reliable monitoring of Vt and unintentional leaks is of the utmost importance. The aim of this article is to describe the importance of tidal volume measurement in the context of AHRF treated with NIV.

Use of Helmet CPAP in COVID-19 – A practical review

2021

Helmet CPAP (H-CPAP) has been recommended in many guidelines as a noninvasive respiratory support during COVID-19 pandemic in many countries around the world. It has the least amount of particle dispersion and air contamination among all noninvasive devices and may mitigate the ICU bed shortage during a COVID surge as well as a decreased need for intubation/mechanical ventilation. It can be attached to many oxygen delivery sources. The MaxVenturi setup is preferred as it allows for natural humidification, low noise burden, and easy transition to HFNC during breaks and it is the recommended transport set-up. The patients can safely be proned with the helmet. It can also be used to wean the p…
