Popis: | Non-invasive ventilatory support is frequently used in patients with severe respiratory failure (SRF), but is often limited to intensive care units (ICU). We hypothesized that an instantaneous short course of NIV (up to 2 h), limited to regular working hours as an additional therapy on the emergency department (ED) would be feasible and could improve patient´s dyspnoea measured by respiratory rate and Borg visual dyspnea scale. NIV was set up by an interdisciplinary respiratory care team. Outside these predefined hours NIV was performed in the ICU. This is an observational cohort study over 1 year in the ED in a non-university hospital. Fifty-one % of medical emergencies arrived during regular working hours (5475 of 10,718 patients). In total, 63 patients were treated with instantaneous NIV. Door to NIV in the ED was 56 (31–97) min, door to ICU outside regular working hours was 84 (57–166) min. Within 1 h of NIV, the respiratory rate decreased from 30/min (25–35) to 19/min (14–24, p |
