The past few decades have seen the strong impact of different pandemics and mass casualty events on health resource use in terms of rising health-care costs and increased mortality. In this context, the development of acute respiratory failure in patients requires the use of mechanical ventilation, either invasive or noninvasive. Recently, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has proved to be a valuable strategy to reduce mortality rates in patients. This is the first book to describe the clinical indications of NIV in patients who have been hospitalized with high-risk infections as well as in the pr...
The past few decades have seen the strong impact of different pandemics and mass casualty events on health resource use in terms of rising health-care costs and increased mortality. In this context, the development of acute respiratory failure in patients requires the use of mechanical ventilation, either invasive or noninvasive. Recently, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has proved to be a valuable strategy to reduce mortality rates in patients.
This is the first book to describe the clinical indications of NIV in patients who have been hospitalized with high-risk infections as well as in the prehospital management of mass casualty incidents, including chemical or biological disaster and pandemics. Compiled by experienced and internationally renowned experts, it offers a comprehensive account of all aspects of noninvasive mechanical ventilation in public health emergencies, such as equipment needs and guidelines for health organizations. Considering recent events (SARS, H1N1 influenza pandemic), the book concludes with a critical review of current studies and future perspectives for the use of NIV.
Therefore, the book provides a valuable resource to all practitioners managing mass casualty incidents and disasters.
