Mechanical Ventilation: Invasive and Non-Invasive Ventilation
Mechanical ventilation has been used widely as a support technique in most intensive care units. Several forms of external invasive and non-invasiveventilation support for respiration have been available to assist the failure of the ventilatory pump. Also, access to lower air pathways through a tracheostomy or endotracheal tubes. It had been constituted as an advanced technique in the management of patients who have respiratory discomfort. More new non-invasive ventilation techniques have been introduced which can be used by the patient in the form of a face mask.
The reasons behind promoting NIV includes the following points- The better awareness about the functioning of ventilatory pump failure indicating mechanical ventilation. The development in the functions of ventilation works in synchrony with the patient. Also, the comprehensive mentioning of the complications that comes with endotracheal intubation and traditional mechanical ventilation. NIV has been utilized mainly for patients who are suffering from severe hypercapnicventilatory failure, and especially those who have a severe exacerbation of the acute obstructive pulmonary.
disease. In this community of people, the use of NIV is associated with significant benefits- Reduction in the need for endotracheal intubation. The decrease in complication rate, Reduced duration of hospital stay, And a substantial reduction in in-hospital mortality. The same type of benefits has also been discovered in patients with asphyxic patterns of acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema. In patients who possess initial hypoxemic patterns of respiratory failure, the chances of NIV's success are much more variable. However, some major benefits could also be seen in specified populations without any contraindications. These contradictions are as follows- Multiple organ failure. loss of consciousness. Hemodynamic instability. One necessary factor involved in success is the delivery of Non-invasive ventilation during respiratory failures. Non-invasive ventilation helps in avoiding the complications that are associated with mechanical ventilation especially, nosocomial infections. The recent use of non-invasive ventilation is used frequently for therapeutic purposes in the intensive care unit.
Without mechanical ventilation support, people might die within a few hours or a few days of hypoxemia and hypercapnia due to respiratory failure. Observational, physiological and research studies have proved that Non-invasive treatment can be used for treating dyspnoea, working on breathing issues, and make gaseous exchange effortless. Randomized trials have helped in conforming and outlining that when NIV should be used as a first-line treatment. Indeed, the success rate of NIV ventilation is not linear, it’s a learning process. The results might not be as good initially but they are improved over time. Also, it must be made clear to the sleep specialist that NIV is a complementary treatment method and shouldn’t be replaced with the ETI technique. The settings of invasive and non-invasive ventilation are similar to that of traditional mechanical ventilation provided to the patient. In practice the circumstances differ, sometimes the patient is selective and the resource is limited. In addition to this, leakage is the quanti-constant feature of new NIV machines. NIV is used as a sort of assisted ventilation, in this the ventilation provided is constant. Rarely, controlledinvasiveand non-invasive ventilation are used.
