The ERS Practical Handbook of Noninvasive Ventilation provides a concise ‘why and how to’ guide to NIV from the basics of equipment and patient selection to discharge planning and community care. Editor Anita K. Simonds has brought together leading clinicians and researchers in the field to provide an easy-to-read guide to all aspects of NIV. Topics covered include: equipment, patient selection, adult and paediatric indications, airway clearance and physiotherapy, acute NIV monitoring, NIV in the ICU, long-term NIV, indications for tracheostomy ventilation, symptom palliation, discharge planning and community care, and setting up an NIV service.

Invasive ventilation is a frequently used lifesaving intervention in critical care. The ERS Practical Handbook of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation provides a concise “why and how to” guide to invasive ventilation, ensuring that caregivers can not only apply invasive ventilation, but obtain a thorough understanding of the underlying principles ensuring that they and their patients gain the most value from this intervention. The editors have brought together leading clinicians and researchers in the field to provide an easy-to-read guide to all aspects of invasive ventilation. Topics covered include: underlying physiology, equipment, invasive ventilation in specific diseases, patient monitoring, supportive therapy and rescue strategies, inhalation therapy during invasive ventilation, weaning from invasive ventilation and technical aspects of the ventilator.

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has shown, in the last two decades, to be an essential ventilatory management modality for treatment of patients with diverse etiologies of acute and chronic respiratory insufficiency, with significant favorable outcomes in terms of improvement in gas exchange, respiratory muscle fatigue, and dyspnea. NIV is an alternative to invasive mechanical ventilation, with significant improvement in short and long term prognosis. However, despite the abundance of literature supporting the benefits of NIV, there is controversy in regards to the timing of initiation and termination of NIV in the disease process, leading to unsettled issues and constant analysis for both researchers and physicians in clinical practice. There is scarce literature that describes thorough predictors of success or failure of NIV. There is need to develop tools or models to predict response to NIV, optimize those responses, increase tolerance to NIV technology (mechanical ventilator, interface, or ventilatory mode) that can be translated to increase success rate of NIV. The book Non-Invasive Ventilation: A Practical Handbook for Understanding the Causes of Treatment Success and Failure is the first text published with well-defined objectives that analyze the success and failure response of non-invasive mechanical ventilation. The table of contents is structured in an order to meet the defined objectives based upon respiratory physiology: Breathing patterns Respiratory muscular fatigue (inspiratory / expiratory muscle) Lung mechanics (compliance and airway resistance) Gas exchange (hypercapnic/hypoxemic), and neurologic determinants) Sections of this book will address different aspects of NIV ranging from perspective pathophysiological benchmarks and clinical studies, to diagnosis and monitoring elements of basic lung patient ventilator interaction, including: Monitoring lung mechanics (pressure curves, volume (tidal and minute) (lower and high) and leakages (concept / monitoring)), in a broad and profound way Illustrating potential determinants and scenarios in non-invasive-ventilation The aim is to describe a summary of global and practical recommendations of the utility of NIV that will affect the readers capability in treating respiratory comorbidities. These include: Chronic respiratory diseases like obstructive sleep apnea, Obesity hypoventilation syndrome, and Cardiac chronic insufficiency.

Simplify, simplify! Henry David Thoreau For writers of technical books, there can be no better piece of advice. Around the time of writing the first edition – about a decade ago – there were very few monographs on this s- ject: today, there are possibly no less than 20. Based on critical inputs, this edition stands thoroughly revamped. New chapters on ventilator waveforms, airway humidification, and aerosol therapy in the ICU now find a place. Novel software-based modes of ventilation have been included. Ventilator-associated pneumonia has been se- rated into a new chapter. Many new diagrams and algorithms have been added. As in the previous edition, considerable energy has been spent in presenting the material in a reader-friendly, conv- sational style. And as before, the book remains firmly rooted in physiology. My thanks are due to Madhu Reddy, Director of Universities Press – formerly a professional associate and now a friend, P. Sudhir, my tireless Pulmonary Function Lab technician who found the time to type the bits and pieces of this manuscript in between patients, A. Sobha for superbly organizing my time, Grant Weston and Cate Rogers at Springer, London, Balasaraswathi Jayakumar at Spi, India for her tremendous support, and to Dr. C. Eshwar Prasad, who, for his words of advice, I should have thanked years ago. vii viii Preface to the Second Edition Above all, I thank my wife and daughters, for understanding.

This book is a practical handbook which will tell you everything you need to know about non-invasive ventilation, whether you are using BIPAP in an acute medical setting or running a home ventilation service for patients with chronic respiratory failure.Different modes of ventilation are explained clearly and simply, with the physiological background presented in manageable chunks.Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, left ventricular failure, obesity, neuromuscular problems and chest wall deformities are covered in detail. There are separate chapters on weaning and setting up a home ventilation service.Throughout the book there are key points, practical tips and checklists, providing you with clear and consise information about the practicalities of NIV.With its easy-to-read style, clear guidance on learning objectives in each chapter, practical examples and case studies, this book is presented in digestible, goal-orientated sections, ideal for busy ward staff to ‘dip into’ to improve their skills and deepen their understanding.
