Filter by:Home use of the NIV device, which is used to manage respiratory failure, one of the most disturbing symptoms due to COPD, will continue to increase. There is a need for studies evaluating the effectiveness of the use of WEB-based training programs in making patients and their families independent in the use of this device. This study will produce evidence for this effect and contribute to the awareness of healthcare professionals working in this field. The WEB-based training module to be developed aims to increase compliance with NIV in patients using NIV at home for a long time and to manage symptoms such as insomnia that may develop due to NIV.
Even though nutrition is a fundamental component of Intensive care unit (ICU) therapy, critically ill patients are frequently malnourished, a factor well known for its strong association with a higher risk of complications, prolonged ICU/hospital length of stay, and greater ICU readmission and mortality rates. Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) use has increased considerably over the past twenty years, making this supportive technique a keystone of acute respiratory failure (ARF) treatment. In this setting, respiratory support is provided through an interface, usually a mask or a helmet, that frequently represents an important obstacle to nutrition delivery, making oral intake impossible and posing the necessity to start enteral (EN) or parenteral nutrition (PN). Moreover, while critical care guidelines regarding nutritional management of patients receiving mechanical ventilation (MV) are well established, data and recommendations about the appropriate nutritional support to patients in NIV are still very limited. Due to this limited data, we want to describe characteristics and nutritional management of patients undergoing NIV in ICU, and to evaluate the difference between the mean caloric and protein intake of these patients and the recommended caloric and protein target for critically ill patients. Secondarily, we want to evaluate the difference of the caloric and protein intake among groups of patients undergoing different nutritional modality and to assess potential associations of the nutritional characteristics with patient outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test if treatment with prehospital Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), due to acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) based on in-hospital criteria, should be used in the prehospital setting. This is performed with the introduction of prehospital arterial blood gas analyzation. The primary objective is: • To determine if early prehospital applied NIV together with standard medical treatment will affect arterial pH at hospital arrival in patients with ARF due to AECOPD. Participants in the intervention will receive Non-invasive ventilation together with standard medical treatment. The intervention will be compared to standard medical treatment alone, that may include inhaled bronchodilators, intravenous corticosteroids, and titrated oxygen supplementation.
This study will determine if NIV using the Vela investigational mask with expiratory washout of the upper airway more effectively reduces respiratory rate in acute patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure. Patients admitted to hospital with acute respiratory failure (ARF) will be assessed for hypercapnic ARF by normal hospital protocols. Patients requiring noninvasive ventilation (NIV) will be set up on NIV as prescribed per standard of care. Enrollment onto the investigation will occur after the patient has been allowed to stabilize on NIV . Patients that meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be approached for consent. Investigation participants will receive two masks in random order; 1. NIV for one hour with the investigational mask (Vela) 2. NIV for one hour with the standard mask (Nivairo). Participants will have their physiological respiratory parameters recorded.
One significant challenge to non-invasive ventilation (NIV) use in children is finding masks to fit a wide range of growing shapes and sizes. While the technology has improved with development of masks specifically for children, the range of options remains limited. Given the smaller size relative to adults, craniofacial abnormalities and craniofacial differences are more likely to compromise mask fit for children. A poor mask fit is uncomfortable, alters delivery of airway pressure, and, in some children, leads to failure of NIV and the need for surgical insertion of an airway in the neck to deliver positive airway pressure through a tracheostomy. This makes expanding the technology to deliver NIV vital and custom NIV masks an exciting solution.In this study, this study will enroll children who are established on long-term NIV with at least some use within 3 months of starting this therapy but who have non-optimal adherence. After consenting to participate and completing demographic and health questionnaire, participants will undergo a facial scan using stereophotogrammetry. This scan will be imported into a computer-aided design software to create a NIV mask customized to the individual face. The steps of mask testing will include: i) Bench testing to compare the leak and comfort parameters of the current commercial mask used by the participant to the custom mask: ii) Efficacy of treatment as measured by polysomonography iii) NIV compliance from machine downloads; iv) Questionnaires to assess the subjective comfort, fit, and adverse events Finally, participants and their parents/guardian will be asked which mask they prefer and why.
Current study aimed to explore the effect of high PEEP during noninvasive ventilation among hypoxemic patients with acute respiratory failure.
The main objective of the current study is to search predictors of non-invasive respiratory support failure, like high -flow oxygen system (HFO) and pressure systems, Bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), in patients with acute hypoxemia produced by COVID-19 pneumonia. In the first phase, we will do a retrospective review of the intermediate respiratory care unit activity from March to May 2020 in the target population. In the second phase development an interventional study. At admission all patients will be treated with HFS monitoring clinical variables like respiratory frequency, oxygen saturation, gasometer results and oxygen inspiration fraction. In case of HFO failure, the patients will be randomized to treatment with CPAP or BIPAP. The same clinical variables will be monitoring to analysis their prediction capacity of failure therapy, defined as mortality or need to intubation. The results will be adjusted comorbidity grade, age and initial severity pneumonia. Secondary objectives of study are 90 days mortality, functional recovery at 90 days and to realise a cost-effectiveness valuation of non-invasive respiratory supports in this disease.
Domiciliary non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a standard care for improving survival rates of selected patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (CHRF) and to improve the patients' hypercapnia, sleep quality, health-related quality of life (QoL). Adherence is an important factor affecting clinical effectiveness of domiciliary NIV. Our previous study has noted the associations between poor domiciliary NIV adherence and increased number of clinical adverse events (p = 0.004) and increased hospitalization requiring acute NIV salvage (p = 0.042). However, there are very limited studies on adherence to domiciliary NIV in patients with CHRF. The only interventional study was a single-group pre-test post-test study and lack of a theoretical framework for guiding the intervention. This study is employing an Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills (IMB) model-based intervention to improve inhalation adherence in a group of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.
