Treatment of respiratory failure in COPD
Patients with advanced COPD and acute or chronic respiratory failure are at high risk for death. Beyond pharmacological treatment, supplemental oxygen and mechanical ventilation are major treatment options. This review describes the physiological concepts underlying respiratory failure and its therapy, as well as important treatment outcomes. The rationale for the controlled supply of oxygen in...

Remels AH, Gosker HR, Langen RC, Schols AM. The mechanisms of cachexia underlying muscle dysfunction in COPD. J Appl Physiol 114: 1253–1262, 2013. First published September 27, 2012; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00790.2012.—Pulmonary cachexia is a prevalent, debilitating, and well-recognized feature of COPD associated with increased mortality and loss of peripheral and respiratory muscle function. ...
متن کاملRisk factors for developing hypoxic respiratory failure in COPD
BACKGROUND Hypoxemia is associated with worse outcomes in COPD. The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence, incidence, and risk factors of hypoxic respiratory failure (HRF) in COPD. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a longitudinal analysis of data from the Swedish National Register of COPD. HRF was defined as resting saturation ≤88% or long-term oxygen therapy. Risk factors for develo...
متن کاملHIGHLIGHTED TOPIC Muscle Dysfunction in COPD Mechanisms of striated muscle dysfunction during acute exacerbations of COPD
Gayan-Ramirez G, Decramer M. Mechanisms of striated muscle dysfunction during acute exacerbations of COPD. J Appl Physiol 114: 1291–1299, 2013. First published January 31, 2013; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00847.2012.—During acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), limb and respiratory muscle dysfunction develops rapidly and functional recovery is partial and slow. The ...
متن کاملRespiratory Muscle Dysfunction in Congestive Heart Failure
Background—In congestive heart failure (CHF), the prognostic significance of impaired respiratory muscle strength has not been established. Methods and Results—Maximal inspiratory pressure (Pimax) was prospectively determined in 244 consecutive patients (207 men) with CHF (ischemic, n575; idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, n5169; age, 54611 years; left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF], 2261...
