چکیده

This study was undertaken to determine the efficacy of nasal mask (NM) versus full face mask (FFM) for the delivery of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in subjects with nocturnal hypoventilation. A total of 16 patients (11 males) were enrolled, all with nocturnal hypoventilation currently treated at home with NIV via pressure preset devices. Subjects underwent full polysomnography on three occasions; on the first night current therapy on NM was reviewed, followed by two experimental studies in randomised order using either NM or FFM. NIV settings and oxygen flow rate were the same under both conditions. Notably, 14 of the 16 subjects required the use of a chinstrap to minimise oral leak. Apnoea-hypopnoea indices were within normal limits under both conditions (1.7 +/- 3.4 NM versus 1.6 +/- 2.4 h FFM). The type of interface did not significantly affect gas exchange during sleep (minimum average arterial oxyhaemoglobin saturation total sleep time 93.4 +/- 2.1 NM versus 92.8 +/- 2.5% FFM, Delta transcutaneous carbon dioxide nonrapid eye movement sleep to rapid eye movement sleep (0.58 +/- 0.36 NM versus 0.50 +/- 0.40 kPa FFM). Sleep efficiency was significantly reduced on the FFM (78 +/- 9 NM versus 70 +/- 14% FFM), although arousal indices were comparable under both conditions (15.6 +/- 9.8 NM versus 15.8 +/- 8.8 h FFM). Full face masks appear to be as effective as nasal masks in the delivery of noninvasive ventilation to patients with nocturnal hypoventilation. However, a chinstrap was required to reduce oral leak in the majority of subjects using the nasal mask.

Full face mask for noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation in patients with acute respiratory failure.

BACKGROUND Noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) is commonly used to improve ventilation and oxygenation in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). Mask leak and intolerance due to facial discomfort or claustrophobia often occur with NPPV and are frequently cited reasons for treatment failure. METHODS Retrospective review of patient records from a tertiary-care referral hosp...

The interface: crucial for successful noninvasive ventilation.

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is a real advance in the management of both chronic and acute respiratory failure. It is the absence of an endotracheal or tracheostomy tube which defines NIV. The development of various interfaces have made the delivery of effective ventilation to patients without intubation possible and a good interface is crucial to success. These can be factory manufactured or ...

Efficacy of a new full face mask for noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

Previous studies have shown that noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) improves gas exchange in acute and chronic respiratory failure. However, some patients are unable to tolerate NPPV due to air leaks around the mask, facial discomfort, and claustrophobia. A new mask that covers the entire face (Total, Respironics, Monroeville, Pa), attempts to overcome these obstacles. We studied ...

The changing role of mechanical ventilation in COPD.

For many years, mechanical ventilation has been employed in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but the recent development of noninvasive techniques, particularly nasal and face mask ventilation, have considerably increased its use. The enthusiasm for these methods, however, has not been matched by the results from well-constructed studies, and the role of ventilatory sup...
