A chart of failure risk for noninvasive ventilation in patients with COPD exacerbation
Marco Confalonieri,Giancarlo Garuti,Maria Sofia Cattaruzza,John Osborn,Massimo Antonelli,Giorgio Conti,Metka Kodric,Onofrio Resta,S Marchese,Cesare Gregoretti,A. Rossi +10 more
TL;DR: The prediction chart can function as a simple tool to predict the risk of failure of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and thus improve clinical management of patients tailoring medical intervention.

Antonio Corrado,C Roussos,Nicolino Ambrosino,Marco Confalonieri,Antoine Cuvelier,Mark W. Elliott,Miquel Ferrer,Massimo Gorini,O. Gurkan,J.-F. Muir,L. Quareni,D Robert,Daniel Rodenstein,A. Rossi,B Schoenhofer,Anita K. Simonds,K Strom,A. Torres,Spyros Zakynthinos +18 more
TL;DR: These studies clearly indicate that in some centres there is an “overutilisation” of ICU resources for monitoring purposes, and that acute on chronic respiratory failure could be managed in many patients without invasive ventilation.

Aging and the respiratory system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the respiratory system is more fragile in the face of respiratory and systemic diseases than the respiratory systems of young adults, and that the aging lung is more convex to the volume axis at low lung volume.
The Effects of Positive End-expiratory Pressure on Respiratory Resistance in Patients with the Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome and in Normal Anesthetized Subjects
TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) upon respiratory resistance during mechanical ventilation in 21 subjects anesthetized for surgery and in 11 patients with the adult respiratory distress syndrome found that expiratory resistances were significantly higher in the ARDS group than in the normal group.

Physiologic response of ventilator-dependent patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to proportional assist ventilation and continuous positive airway pressure
Lorenzo Appendini,Andrea Purro,M Gudjonsdottir,P Baderna,A Patessio,Silvio Zanaboni,Claudio F. Donner,A. Rossi +7 more
TL;DR: In difficult-to-wean COPD patients, PAV improves ventilation and reduces both P0.1 and inspiratory muscle effort; the combination of PAV and CPAP can unload the inspiratory muscles to values close to those found in normal subjects.
