2 Physiologic targets of ventilation in COPD mechanical pressure support reduces the diaphragmatic muscle workload antagonisation of intrinsic PEEP by extrinsic PEEP

3 Clinical targets of ventilation in COPD reduction of dyspnoea improvement of oxygenation improvement of respiratory acidosis (and hypercapnia) improvement of vigilance normalization of tachypnoea normalization of tachycardia and haemodynamics

4 Long term home ventilation non-invasive in wake patients, who are not 24/24 ventilator dependent. 4 hours of continuous spontaneous breathing should be possible. invasive completely ventilator dependent patients with disturbed reflexes of the upper airways. extreme sputum production transfer possible at any time

5 Long term home ventilation Selection of ventilator type: 1. criterion: invasive or non-invasive ventilation (ventilators must be approved for invasive ventilation). 2. criterion: Availability of a certain ventilator; dependent on health insurance status of the patient. The Respiratory Unit must have experience with the selected ventilator. The patient needs to feel comfortable with the characteristics of the ventilator. Ventilators of different manufacturers may behave different, even when the parameters are set at the same levels.

6 Long term home ventilation Selection of ventilatory mode: 1. criterion: diagnosis of the patient. Pressure controlled ventilation is recommended for patients with COPD, pulmonary emphysema pulmonary fibrosis Volume controlled ventilation is recommended for patients with neuromuscular diseases severe kyphoscoliosis

7 Long-term ventilation Controlled ventilation Cycling of the ventilator is only time dependent. Assisted ventilation Cycling of the ventilator is triggered by the breathing effort of the patient.

8 Long-term ventilation Assisted/Controlled Ventilation (mode of choice for COPD) Setting of a backup frequency at the ventilator. If the patient s own breathing frequency is higher than the backup frequency, the patient is ventilated in assisted mode. If the patient s own breathing frequency drops below the backup frequency, the ventilator switches to controlled mode.

29 This study tested the hypothesis, that long-term use of NIV (more than one year) reduces all-cause mortality in patients with moderate or severe COPD and hypercapnia.

30 Primary outcome parameter: all-cause mortality Secondary outcome parameter: blood gases, lung function exercise capacity (6 minute walking test). Dyspnoe-Score during rest and after 6 minutes walking. Quality of life: St. George s Respiratory Questionnaire, SF-36 Questionnaire, Severe Respiratory Insufficiency Questionnaire

31 Inclusion criteria: COPD GOLD stage IV in stable state. PaCO2 above 7 kpa (51,8 mmhg), combined with a ph of 7.35 or above. These gases must be measured after 30 minutes breathing room air in sitting position.

32 group size: 150 patients + x 150 patients + x control group intervention group

33 Target of ventilatory support (intervention group) Reduction of the baseline PaO 2 by at least 20 %, or into the normal range (measured 1 hour after NIV has been stopped).
