6 RESPIRATORY CARE FOR NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASE Shu-Lung Wu 1, Huan-Wen Tsui 1, Jeng-Shing Wang 2 Abstract Many progressive neuromuscular disorders involve the muscles of the respiratory system, and respiratory failure is the most common cause of death for many of these disorders. Accordingly, ventilator management is a critical part of supportive care for these patients. The following discusses the evaluation of patients with neuromuscular disease to characterize the nature and severity of respiratory muscle involvements, indications and contraindications for the use of noninvasive ventilation and invasive ventilation, and techniques for initiation. Noninvasive ventilator is widely considered to be a very effective treatment in patients with chronic ventilator failure due to neuromuscular disease. With proper implementation, ventilator support of patients with neuromuscular disease can bring about improvements in quality of life and prolongation of survival. Key words: Neuromuscular disease, Noninvasive ventilation, Respiratory care Correspondence: Dr. Jeng-Shing Wang No. 166, Min-Shiang St., Kaohsiung 800, Taiwan Phone: ; Fax: ; wangjs6@hotmail.com Division of Neurology, E-Da Hospital, Kaohsiung 1 ; Division of Respiratory Medicine, Chang Bing Show Chwan Memorial Hospital, Changhua 2 25
