Abstract
Objectives Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is considered the standart of care in the management of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure due to COPD. NIV failure has been defined as the need for endotracheal intubation or death. Its rate greatly varies between 5-60%, depending on numerous factors. The choice of interface during NIV represents the main determinant of its success in an acute setting. Asynchrony has rarely been cited as a direct cause of NIV immediate failure. We aimed effect of nasal strips in success of NIV in acute hypercapnic respiratory failure.
Highlights
There were no association with mortality and length of stay in RICU
Nasal strips may helpful and improve the Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) success in the icu patients suffer from acute respiratory failure with COPD
This study was conducted in a 12-bed adult respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) (>18 years)
Summary
Effects of nasal strip on efficiency of non-invasive ventilation in patients with acute respiratory failure, preliminary results DM Yavşan, R Altuntaş, H Caner, S Demirbaş, M Göktepe, T Teke, K Uzun* Objectives Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is considered the standart of care in the management of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure due to COPD.
