PROGNOSTIC VALUE OF INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF RESIDUAL HYPOVENTILATION USING NOCTURNAL CAPNOGRAPHY IN MECHANICALLY VENTILATED NEUROMUSCULAR PATIENTS: A 5 YEARS FOLLOW-UP STUDY.

PROGNOSTIC VALUE OF INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF RESIDUAL HYPOVENTILATION USING NOCTURNAL CAPNOGRAPHY IN MECHANICALLY VENTILATED NEUROMUSCULAR PATIENTS: A 5 YEARS FOLLOW-UP STUDY.

BackgroundRestrictive respiratory failure is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in neuromuscular diseases (NMD). Home mechanical ventilation (HMV) is used to treat hypoventilation, and its efficiency is mostly assessed by daytime blood gases or nocturnal oxygen saturation monitoring (SpO2). No...
