Journal ArticleDOI
Randomised controlled trial of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) for nocturnal hypoventilation in neuromuscular and chest wall disease patients with daytime normocapnia
TL;DR: Patients with neuromuscular disease with nocturnal hypoventilation are likely to deteriorate with the development of daytime hypercapnia and/or progressive symptoms within 2 years and may benefit from the introduction of noCTurnal NIV before daytimehypercapnia ensues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cough augmentation with mechanical insufflation/exsufflation in patients with neuromuscular weakness.
Michelle Chatwin,Ewen Ross,Nicholas Hart,Annabel H. Nickol,Michael I. Polkey,Anita K. Simonds +5 more
TL;DR: Mechanical insufflation/exsufflation produces a greater increase in peak cough flow than other standard cough augmentation techniques in adults and children with neuromuscular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
British Thoracic Society guideline for respiratory management of children with neuromuscular weakness
Jeremy Hull,Roona Aniapravan,Elaine Chan,Michelle Chatwin,Julian Forton,Jayne Gallagher,N. A. Gibson,Jill Gordon,Imelda Hughes,Renee McCulloch,Robert Ross Russell,Anita K. Simonds +11 more
TL;DR: The British Thoracic Society guideline for respiratory management of children with neuromuscular weakness summarises the available evidence in this field and provides recommendations that will aid healthcare professionals in delivering good quality patient care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of droplet dispersion during non-invasive ventilation, oxygen therapy, nebuliser treatment and chest physiotherapy in clinical practice: implications for management of pandemic influenza and other airborne infections
Anita K. Simonds,A. Hanak,Michelle Chatwin,Mary J. Morrell,A Hall,Kim H. Parker,Jennifer H. Siggers,Robert Julian Dickinson +7 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that health-care workers providing NIV and chest physiotherapy, working within 1 m of an infected patient should have a higher level of respiratory protection, but that infection control measures designed to limit aerosol spread may have less relevance for these procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Airway clearance techniques in neuromuscular disorders: A state of the art review.

Gonçalves,Nicole Sheers,Uwe Mellies,Jesus Gonzales-Bermejo,Jesus Sancho,Brigitte Fauroux,Tiina Andersen,Brit Hov,Malin Nygren-Bonnier,Matthieu Lacombe,Kurt Pernet,Mike J.

TL;DR: The review presents descriptions; standard definitions; the supporting evidence for and limitations of proximal and peripheral ACTs that are used in patients with NMD; as well as providing recommendations for objective measurements of efficacy, specifically for proximal ACTs.
