The generation of respiratory impulses can be impaired in congenital disorders, such as central congenital alveolar hypoventilation, in alterations of the brain stem or complex diseases like obesity hypoventilation. The translation of the impulses via spinal cord and nerves to the respiratory muscles...
متن کاملManagement of chronic alveolar hypoventilation by nasal ventilation.
This is a study of the effect of nocturnal nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) on symptoms of chronic alveolar hypoventilation (CAH), sleep oxygen saturation (SaO2), and frequency of hospitalization of patients with progressive neuromuscular respiratory insufficiency or restrictive lung disease from thoracic wall deformity. The nocturnal use of NIPPV is explored in combinat...
