COPD and Respiratory Insufficiency

• Often (but not always) caused by smoking or long term exposure to

irritants. Over time this irritation creates obstruction of the lower airway

that interferes with gas exchange, can’t get air in or out.

• Patients with OSA have obstruction issues in the upper airway, COPD

creates obstruction in the lower airways.

• Lungs lose normal elasticity like an overstretched rubber band. Patients

with advanced/very severe COPD often experience respiratory fatigue

leading to respiratory failure. Respiratory Failure in COPD is

sometimes referred to as hypercapnia meaning elevated levels of CO2.

Home Non-Invasive Ventilation

Where we came from and

where we are today

Perceptions of home ventilation

• Past: 24/7 vent dependency, trach/INV only,

complex devices, high risk/cost service.

• Present: Option for patients needing INV or NIV

treatment of neuromuscular, thoracic restrictive

and chronic respiratory failure associated with

chronic obstructive pulmonary disease*.

(*Medicare NCD)

55

Hospital NIV Ventilator

Home NIV Ventilator

• Present: Nocturnal NIV

57

Home NIV Advantages

• Ease of use

• Reduced need for skilled caregivers

• Elimination of tracheostomy-related

complications

• Improved patient comfort

• Allows speech, improved communication

• Lower overall cost of care

58

Goals of Home NIV

• Relieve symptoms

• Reduce work of breathing

• Improve or stabilize gas exchange

• Improve duration and quality of sleep

• Maximize quality of life

• Prolong survival

• Physiological parameters, exacerbation rates and long-term

survival were assessed in 73 COPD patients (mean FEV1

30 % predicted) who were placed on high-intensity NIV due

to chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure between March

1997 and May 2006.

• Results: Controlled NIV with RR of 21 breaths/min and

positive airway pressures of 28 (+5/-5) cm H20 led to

significant improvements in ABG’s and lung function

Rationale for NIV in COPD Treatment

Improved Sleep

• Improved Sleep (Total time of sleep, efficiency of sleep

– Patients had COPD and were hypercapnic. Patients were using

either O2 or O2 and NIV during the night.

– TST % 202 – 260 min w O2, 339 min with O2 and NIV

,

Efficiency % Total number of hours asleep as opposed to total

number of hours in bed. Average 50%, up to 70% with O2 and

80% with O2 and NIV

– Awake % 40, 30 with O2 20% with O2 and NIV

Meecham Jones. Et al 1995 AJRCCM

69

Rationale – Improved Ventilation

• Improved Ventilation

• Nocturnal NIV in addition to Rehab in hypercapnic pateints with

COPD (2008)

– Author looked at tidal volume, minute volume and RR

– Found significant Increases in ventilation during the

daytime when patients are using NIV at night.

Deiverman et al.2008

Long-term home noninvasive mechanical ventilation

increases systemic inflammatory response in chronic

obstructive pulmonary disease:

RESULTS:

• Ninety-three patients were included (48 NIV, 45 oxygen), with analogous

baseline features. Sputum analysis showed similar HNP, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-

alpha levels (P > 0.5). Conversely, NIV group exhibited higher HNP and IL-6

systemic levels (P < 0.001) and lower IL-10 concentrations (P < 0.001).

Subjects undergoing NIV had a significant reduction of rehospitalizations

during follow-up compared to oxygen group (P = 0.005). These findings were

confirmed after propensity matching and pH stratification.

Paone G, et al Abstract 2014 71

Long-term home NIV increases systemic inflammatory

response in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

RESULTS:

These findings challenge prior paradigms based on the assumption that

pulmonary inflammation is per se detrimental.

NIV beneficial impact on lung mechanics may overcome the potential

unfavorable effects of an increased inflammatory state.

Paone G, et al Abstract 2014

72

Rational for NIV

• Respiratory Muscle strength

– . Decrease in EMG activity with Long Term Ventilation in COPD

– Electrical activity of Respiratory Muscles. Three Respiratory

Muscles,

– Intercostal

– Diaghram

– Scalenes

– Chronic NIV may be beneficial for the electrical activity of the

respiratory muscles

Deiverman et al. ERS Abstract in 2009

73

How may home NIV help the COPD patient?

• Rest and unload the respiratory muscles

• Improved sleep efficiency

• Improvements in PFTs and ventilation,

• Improvements in inflammation response

• Reduction in readmissions for chronic

respiratory failure

75

• AVAPS-AE Mode

– Auto backup rate

– Adjustable AVAPS rate

Mouthpiece Ventilation

Pressure Support up to 50 cmH2O

New NIV updates and expanded versatility

AVAPS Review

• AVAPS acts primarily as a bi-level pressure support device but is able

to provide a constant tidal volume with the AVAPS feature enabled

– Can be used with S, S/T, PC or T modes

• Automatically adjusts the pressure support level to maintain a

consistent tidal volume

– IPAP will automatically increase or decrease to maintain set tidal

volume

76

• Automatically titrates pressure support

– Changes in body position

– Sleep stage

– Changes in respiratory mechanics

• Delivers average tidal volume

– Within the night

– Long-term progression

• AVAPS produces results comparable to sleep lab titration of PS1

– CO2 reduction

– Health-related quality of life

– Sleep quality

Expanding Ventilatory Support

Mouthpiece ventilation (MPV)

MPV is a form of volume ventilation whereby the patient’s normal state is

disconnected from the ventilator and the patient initiates a breath, as

needed, through an oral interface.

85

Kiss Trigger and MPV Support System

• A new ‘kiss’ trigger with signal flow technology detects when the patient

engages and disengages from the mouthpiece to deliver on-demand

ventilation

• This feature combines with a mouthpiece ventilation (MPV) support

system to enhance ease of use

• Lower pressures are adequate

• Patient meets RAD Guidelines:

1, ABG PaCO2, done while awake and breathing the

patient’s usual prescribed Fi02 ≥ 52mmhg

and

2. Sleep oximetry SaO2 less than or equal to 88% for at

least five continuous minutes, done while breathing oxygen

at 2 LPM or the patient’s usual FIO2 (whichever is higher)

and

3. Prior to initiating therapy, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

and treatment with a continuous positive airway pressure

device (CPAP) has been considered and ruled out
