he standard treatment for patients with neuromuscular respiratory failure is non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as non-invasive ventilation support-setting (NVS). NVS is administered through a nasal or face mask and/or mouthpiece with the potential to cause nasal ulcers, discomfort, and/or aesthetic issues, resulting in poor compliance. We reported the observation of a 45-year-old woman with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), secondary to Dysferlin deficiency, who was on NVS since 2017 for nocturnal hypoventilation. In 2018, despite nocturnal ventilation, due to weight gain and daytime hypoventilation, a nasal mask was introduced. We initiated daytime intermittent abdominal pressure ventilation (IAPV) to mitigate cosmetic problems, improving in pO2 and decreasing in pCO2 versus baseline (52>84 mmHg, 46>33 mmHg respectively) at 6 (85 mmHg, 42 mmHg) and 18 months (93 mmHg, 38 mmHg), respectively. IAPV was effective, safe, and well-tolerated in our patients who did not tolerate standard daytime NVS with the known interface.

Abstract The frequency of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) use increased in neonates of all gestational ages with respiratory distress (RD). However, the impact of delayed initiation of NIV support in outborn neonates remains poor understood. The aim of the present study was to identify the impact of delayed initiation of NIV in outborn late-preterm and term neonates. The medical records of 277 infants (gestational age of ≥ 35 weeks) who were received NIV as primary respiratory therapy <24 h of age between 2016 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Among the 190 outborn neonates, the factors associated with respiratory adverse outcomes were investigated. Infants with RD divided into two groups, mild (FiO2 ≤0.3) and moderate-to-severe RD group (FiO2 >0.3), depending on initial oxygen requirement under NIV support. Median time to start of NIV support at tertiary center was 3.5 (2.2–5.0) h. Male sex (odds ratio [OR], 2.9; 95% CI, 1.1–7.7), high oxygen requirement (FiO2 >0.3) (OR, 4.8; 95% CI, 1.5–15.3), and respiratory distress syndrome (OR, 10.4; 95% CI, 3.9–27.8) were the significant factors associated with adverse outcomes. Subgroup analysis revealed that in the moderate-to-severe RD group, delayed initiation of NIV (≥3 h) was significantly associated with pulmonary air leakage (p=0.033).Conclusions: Our study shows that outborn neonates with moderate-to-severe RD who were treated with delayed NIV were associated with an increased likelihood of pulmonary air leakage. Additional prospective studies are needed to establish the optimal timing and methods of NIV support for outborn late-preterm and term infants.

The review discusses the issue of the mutual influence of combination of atrial fibrillation (AF) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In individuals with a combination of these pathologies, OSA can influence the easier realization of AF. The presence of respiratory disturbances in sleep reduces the effectiveness of all types of AF treatment (antiarrhythmic, surgical, electrical cardioversion). It is shown, that the treatment of OSA by the method of non-invasive ventilation support (CPAP-therapy) improves the results of catheter treatment of AF in the early postoperative period.
