Methods: We examined one patient each for NPPV and NHF. Polysomnography (PSG), review of the patient charts, and semi-structured interviews were used to collect the data for analysis. Results: Patients treated with NPPV or NHF demonstrated a noticeable reduction in deep sleep, with most of their sleep being shallow. Their sleep patterns varied greatly from those of healthy individuals. These results suggest that, in addition to experiencing extremely fragmented sleep, sleep in these patients was more likely to be interrupted by nursing interventions, such as during auscultation of breath sounds. Furthermore, it was revealed that “anxiety or discomfort that accompanies the mask or air pressure” in patients treated with NPPV and “discomfort that accompanies the nasal cannula or NHF circuit” in patients treated with NHF may be primary causes of disrupted sleep. Our results suggest a need for nursing care aimed at improving sleep quality in patients treated with NPPV or NHF.展开更多

Methods:90 patients with COPD and type II respiratory failure were randomly divided into observation group and control group (n=45). Control group received conventional therapy, observation group received conventional therapy+adjuvant noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, and differences in blood gas parameters, cardiac function, inflammatory state, etc., were compared between two groups of patients 2 weeks after treatment. Results:Arterial blood gas parameters pH and alveolar-arterial partial pressure of oxygen [P(A-a)O2] levels of observation group were higher than those of control group while, potassium ion (K+), chloride ion (Cl-) and carbon dioxide combining power (CO2CP) levels were lower than those of control group 2 weeks after treatment;echocardiography parameters Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (DTIS) and pulmonary arterial velocity (PAV) levels were lower than those of control group (P<0.05) while pulmonary artery accelerating time (PAACT), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVDd) and right atrioventricular tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) levels were higher than those of control group (P<0.05);serum cardiac function indexes adiponectin (APN), Copeptin, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), cystatin C (CysC), growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) and heart type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) content were lower than those of control group (P<0.05);serum inflammatory factors hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), IL-8, IL-10, and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) content were lower than those of control group (P<0.05). Conclusions:Adjuvant noninvasive positive pressure ventilation can optimize the blood gas parameters, cardiac function and inflammatory state in patients with COPD and type II respiratory failure, and it is of positive significance in improving the overall treatment outcome.展开更多

文摘目的:评价经鼻持续气道正压通气(NCPAP)和双水平NCPAP(Bi-level NCPAP)对早产儿中度呼吸窘迫综合征(RDS)的治疗效果及对炎症反应的影响。方法:42例符合标准中度RDS的早产儿,胎龄28～34周,随机分为A、B两组,分别采用NCPAP治疗(压力6 cmH2O)和Bi-level NCPAP治疗(低压4.0 cm H2O,高压7.5 cm H2O)。在出生后第1、7日检测早产儿血清细胞因子(IL-6、IL-8、TNF-α)水平,记录患儿需要呼吸支持和氧依赖的时间以及出院时的胎龄,比较两组上述指标的差异。结果:两组早产儿均存活,无支气管肺发育不良或中枢神经系统疾病的发生。出生后第1、7日B组血清IL-6、IL-8、TNF-α水平均明显低于NCPAP组(P均<0.05)。两组早产儿组内不同时间血清三种细胞因子水平比较差异无统计学意义(P均>0.05)。A组需要呼吸支持的时间、氧依赖时间均长于B组(P均<0.05)、出院时胎龄大于B组(P<0.05)。结论:与NCPAP相比,Bi-level NCPAP能更好地改善通气、缩短呼吸支持和氧依赖的时间,缩短早产儿住院时间,所引起炎症反应程度也较NCPAP低,因此Bi-level NC-PAP对早产儿具有更好的耐受性和安全性。
