Home Respiratory Strategies in Patients With COPD With Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

BACKGROUND:Home noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may improve chronic hypercarbia in COPD and patient-important outcomes. The efficacy of home high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) as an alternative is unclear.METHODS:We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, Scopus, and ClinicalTrials.gov for randomized trials of subjects from inception to March 31, 2023, and updated the search on July 14, 2023. We performed a frequentist network meta-analysis and assessed the certainty of the evidence using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach. We analyzed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing NIV, HFNC, or standard care in adult subjects with COPD with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure. Outcomes included mortality, COPD exacerbations, hospitalizations, and quality of life (St George Respiratory Questionnaire [SGRQ]).RESULTS:We analyzed 24 RCTs (1,850 subjects). We found that NIV may reduce the risk of death compared to standard care (relative risk 0.82 [95% CI 0.66–1.00]) and probably reduces exacerbations (relative risk 0.71 [95% CI 0.58–0.87]). HFNC probably reduces exacerbations compared to standard care (relative risk 0.77 [0.68–0.88]), but its effect on mortality is uncertain (relative risk 1.20 [95% CI 0.63–2.28]). HFNC probably improves SGRQ scores (mean difference −7.01 [95% CI −12.27 to −1.77]) and may reduce hospitalizations (relative risk 0.87 [0.69–1.09]) compared to standard care. No significant difference was observed between HFNC and NIV in reducing exacerbations.CONCLUSIONS:Both NIV and HFNC reduce exacerbation risks in subjects with COPD compared to standard care. HFNC may offer advantages in improving quality of life.

Management of central sleep apnoea: a review of non-hypercapnic causes

Central sleep apnoea (CSA) is characterised by recurrent episodes of airway cessation or reduction in the absence of respiratory effort. Although CSA is less common than obstructive sleep apnoea, it shares similar symptoms. CSA can be secondary to various medical conditions, high altitude and medication exposure. CSA can also emerge during obstructive sleep apnoea therapy. There are a range of treatment options and selecting the right therapy requires an understanding of the pathophysiology of CSA. This review explores the aetiology, pathophysiology and clinical management of non-hypercapnic CSA.

Opnieuw protesten tegen coronamaatregelen in Duitse steden

In meerdere Duitse steden is opnieuw gedemonstreerd tegen de coronamaatregelen van de Duitse regering. In Berlijn, maar bijvoorbeeld ook in Stuttgart, kwamen bij de zevende 'Wake voor de grondwet' weer duizenden demonstranten bij elkaar.

In Stuttgart verzamelden duizenden mensen zich op de Cannstatter Wasen: een groot festivalterrein aan de rivier de Neckar. De initiatiefnemers hadden 50.000 mensen aangemeld voor de demonstratie, maar uiteindelijk waren er maximaal 10.000 toegestaan. Het ging er rustig aan toe in Stuttgart, maar in Berlijn zouden er demonstranten zijn gearresteerd.

IT-ondernemer Michael Ballweg is de initiatiefnemer van de demonstratie in Stuttgart. Hij heeft de beweging Querdenken opgericht, omdat hij vindt dat de grondrechten te makkelijk en op te grote schaal zijn ingeperkt. De demonstranten wantrouwen de koers van hun regering. Ze vinden dat de maatregelen tegen het virus veel te ver gaan.

Afgelopen woensdag werden er flinke versoepelingen aangekondigd. Merkel liet toen weten dat Duitsland voor een groot deel van het slot zal gaan. Zodra binnen een regio het aantal nieuwe besmettingen per week de grens van 50 per 100.000 inwoners overschrijdt, worden de versoepelingen echter per direct weer teruggedraaid.

Hypoxic and Hypercapnic Events in Young Infants During Bed-sharing

Sudden infant death syndrome remains the major cause of postneonatal death in developed countries. Although infant-parent bed-sharing following antenatal smoking or maternal consumption of alcohol on the bed-sharing night increases the risk of death, the mechanism is not known.

Bed-sharing infants experienced more oxygen desaturations and episodes of carbon dioxide rebreathing than cot-sleeping infants but showed appropriate behavioral and physiologic responses. A deficit in these responses in vulnerable infants could link to increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome. (Read the full article)

Asthma and hypercapnic respiratory failure

A 40-year-old, male non-smoker was diagnosed with asthma 6 years ago. He now presents with a 1-week history of worsening breathlessness with fever, cough, and purulent expectoration. He has had >10 emergency department visits and two admissions to hospital in the last 3 months. At each admission, he received bronchodilators and systemic steroids resulting in rapid improvement within 24 h. However, in the current presentation, the patient has no relief with corticosteroids and bronchodilators. His pulse is 140 per min, respiratory rate is 40 per min, blood pressure is 90/60 mmHg and room air oxygen saturation is 80%. Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis shows hypercapnic respiratory failure. In view this respiratory failure, the patient is intubated and mechanical ventilation initiated. A chest radiograph is shown in figure 1. The therapy initiated includes bronchodilators, a systemic steroid, antibiotics and supportive care.
