Comparison of Two Methods for Weaning Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Requiring Mechanical Ventilation for More Than 15 Days

TL;DR: The overall 30-d weaning success rate was significantly greater and the time spent under mechanical ventilation by survived and weaned patients was shorter in the patients in the study than in historical control patients, and the LWU and hospital stays were significantly shorter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical insufflation-exsufflation improves outcomes for neuromuscular disease patients with respiratory tract infections.

TL;DR: Provision of mechanical insufflation–exsufflation in combination with standard chest physical treatments may improve the management of airway mucous encumbrance in neuromyopathic patients; its use should be included in the noninvasive approach to treatment of respiratory tract infections with impaired mucous clearance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival and quality of life after tracheostomy for acute respiratory failure in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

TL;DR: Although administered at the time of a respiratory crisis without being discussed in advance, tracheostomy shows good acceptance and results in acceptable QoL, and patients with ALS have a high chance of long-term survival after trachostomy for ARF.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy to treat patients with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure consequent to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

TL;DR: HFNC is suggested to be a safe treatment for less severe patients with SARS-CoV-2 hARF and efficacy will need to be assessed as part of a clinical trial.
