Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiology and management of pulmonary infections in cystic fibrosis.
TL;DR: This comprehensive State of the Art review summarizes the current published knowledge base regarding the pathophysiology and microbiology of pulmonary disease in cystic fibrosis and potential future therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
British Thoracic Society guideline for non-CF bronchiectasis.
TL;DR: These guidelines were designed to identify relevant studies in non-cystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis, to provide guidelines on management based on published studies where possible or a consensus view, and to identify gaps in knowledge and identify areas for future study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep-disordered breathing in children.
TL;DR: Advances in diagnosis and management can alleviate much of the morbidity previously associated with sleep-related respiratory disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) versus nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) for preterm neonates after extubation
TL;DR: To compare effects of management with NIPPV versus NCPAP on the need for additional ventilatory support in preterm infants whose endotracheal tube was removed after a period of intermittent positive pressure ventilation, a meta-analysis demonstrated a statistically and clinically significant reduction in the risk of meeting extubation criteria.

TL;DR: Inspiratory positive airway pressure delivered by a face mask can obviate the need for conventional mechanical ventilation in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cystic fibrosis in adults: 75 cases and a review of 232 cases in the literature
TL;DR: Elevated sweat chloride and sodium levels proved excellent discriminants for cystic fibrosis even in patients in the older age group, and COPD, present in 97 per cent, was the major cause of morbidity and mortality, and differed from COPD of other etiologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of carbon dioxide on diaphragmatic function in human beings
TL;DR: It is shown that acute respiratory acidosis equivalent to an arterial carbon dioxide tension of about 54 mm Hg decreases the contractility and endurance time of the diaphragm in human beings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ventilatory muscle support in respiratory failure with nasal positive pressure ventilation.
TL;DR: The results indicate that NPPV can noninvasively provide ventilatory support while reducing inspiratory muscle energy expenditure in acute and chronic respiratory failure of diverse etiology.
Journal Article
Treatment of Respiratory Failure during Sleep in Patients with Neuromuscular Disease
TL;DR: It is concluded that nasally applied positive pressure ventilation is a highly effective method of providing nocturnal assisted ventilation because it stabilizes the oropharyngeal airway.
