Clinical Trial Summary

This is a retrospective cohort study to assess the factor associated with success of non-invasive positive ventilation in ALS patients.

Description:

Patients with ALS who were admitted to a tertiary hospital for initially applying non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). The objective of this study was to investigate factors associated with optimal NIPPV initiation and adherence, and to assess the long-term effects of NIPPV adherence in ALS patients.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Success of NIPPV	The success of NIPPV application was defined empirically as use of = 2 hours per day and the failure as use of < 2 hours for a day or conversion to invasive positive pressure ventilation via tracheostomy or refuse to apply NIPPV during hospitalization.	through intervention completion, with an average of 10 days
Secondary	Lenght of stay	The length of stay (LOS) was defined as the interval between admission and hospital discharge, and calculated as the number of midnights between admission and discharge from the hospital.	through intervention completion, with an average of 10 days
