Ventilation and oxygenation changes during sleep in cystic fibrosis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oxygen desaturation during sleep in patients with cystic fibrosis has been attributed to changes in the end-expiratory volume during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, leading to worsening of the ventilation-perfusion distribution. The purpose of this study was to describe the changes in ventilation during sleep that may contribute to the oxygen desaturation. Six adolescent males with moderate to severe cystic fibrosis were studied. It was concluded that hypoventilation during REM may contribute to oxygen desaturation in patients with cystic fibrosis.

Nocturnal ventilatory support in patients with cystic fibrosis: comparison with supplemental oxygen.
Progressive deterioration of lung function in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients may lead to significant hypoxaemia and hypercapnia, especially during sleep. The effects of bi-level noninvasive positive pressure nasal mask ventilation (NIPPV) on respiration and sleep were compared to those of low-flow oxygen therapy in six CF patients (mean +/- SD age 22.3 +/- 4.7 yrs, with severe lung disease (forc...

Abstract Introduction: Changing position is an important aspect within nursing care. Prone positioning amongst premature infants could improve their oxygenation compared to supine position. Side lying position leads to developed support between premature infants, however there is few studies about effects of this position on premature infants 'oxygenation. Objective: This study was conduc...

متن کاملSepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome requiring extracorporeal life support in an adolescent with mild cystic fibrosis
Outcomes for invasive mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) to treat acute respiratory failure in patients with mild cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease are not known. We present a case of the successful use of ECMO to treat acute respiratory failure secondary to staphylococcal sepsis in an adolescent CF patient with previously normal lung function. Her post-ECMO c...

Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common life-shortening, hereditary disease in whites, manifests itself principally in childhood. Patients presenting with CF as adults appear to be different when compared to patients diagnosed with CF during childhood. Often these patients have been previously diagnosed with asthma, chronic bronchitis or emphysema. We present a case of a woman diagnosed with CF a...
