Abstract
Home noninvasive ventilation (NIV), including continuous (CPAP) and bilevel (BPAP) positive airway pressure, is increasingly used in children worldwide. In this narrative review, we present a comprehensive summary of the equipment available for home NIV in pediatrics, excluding neonates. NIV may be challenging in young children, as the majority of the equipment has been developed for adults. Regarding the interfaces, only a few masks have been specifically developed for young children in recent years, while older children may benefit from a large variety of interfaces. Even though much progress has been made, skin injuries are still present, and need to be managed rapidly. Several studies addressed the management of the side effects, but recent studies are lacking regarding orofacial anomalies. No recent study reported the available interfaces for young children and the strategies for an optimal mask fit. Regarding the devices, an adapted NIV device to pediatrics that allows an adequate patient's breathing detection should guarantee optimal ventilatory efficiency and monitoring of NIV. A close follow-up and regular monitoring should be mandatory to rule out the potential issues, optimize NIV therapy and ascertain the efficacy of NIV. However, studies are lacking to guide the choice of devices in young children and the optimal management of home NIV in pediatrics. We summarized the characteristics of the different interfaces available for young children and the limitations of NIV devices. We finally addressed potential areas for future research on long-term home NIV in children.

Incidence, outcome, and prognostic factors of prolonged mechanical ventilation among children in Chinese mainland: a multi-center survey. Front Pediatr 2024; 12:1413094. [PMID: 38873585 PMCID: PMC11171133 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2024.1413094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the incidence, outcome, and prognostic factors of prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) in children in Mainland China. Methods A prospective study was conducted in 11 pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) from May 1, 2021, to April 30, 2022. All pediatric patients on mechanical ventilation meeting the criteria for PMV were included in the study. Results Out of 5,292 patients receiving mechanical ventilation, 278 children met the criteria for PMV (5.3%). After excluding case with incomplete data or lost to follow-up, the study included 250 patients. Among them, 115 were successfully weaned from mechanical ventilation, 90 died, and 45 were still on mechanical ventilation. The 6-month survival rate was 64%. The primary associated conditions of PMV were lower airway diseases (36%), central nervous system diseases (32%), and neuromuscular diseases (14%). The stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that the utilization of vasoactive agents and an elevated pediatric logistic organ dysfunction-2 (PELOD-2) score on the day of PMV diagnosis were significantly associated with an increased of PMV death. Specifically, the odds ratio (OR) for vasoactive agent use was 2.86; (95% CI: 0.15-0.84; P = 0.018), and for the PELOD-2 score, it was 1.37; 95% CI: 1.17-1.61; P < .001). Conversely, early rehabilitation intervention was negatively associated with the risk of PMV death (OR = 0.45; 95% CI: 0.22-0.93; P = .032). Furthermore, the tracheotomy timing emerged as an independent predictor of failure to wean from PMV, with an OR of 1.08, (95% CI: 1.01-1.16; P = .030). Conclusions The study revealed a 5.3% incidence of PMV in children requiring mechanical ventilation in China. The use of vasoactive agents and a higher PELOD-2 score at PMV diagnosis were significantly associated with an increased risk of PMV death, whereas early rehabilitation intervention was identified as crucial for improving patient outcomes. The timing of tracheostomy was identified as a high-risk factor for failure to wean from mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
AIM No studies have described long-term paediatric home respiratory support in Nordic countries. We examined the clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes of paediatric patients who received continuous positive airway pressure, non-invasive-positive-pressure ventilation and invasive ventilation from a multidisciplinary home respiratory support team. METHODS Retrospective tertiary-level data were collected between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2020 in Tampere University Hospital. These comprised patient demographics, treatment course and polysomnography-confirmed sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). RESULTS There were 93 patients (63.4% boys). The median age at treatment initiation was 8.4 (range 0.11-16.9) years. The patients had: neuromuscular disease (16.1%), central nervous system disease (14.0%), developmental disabilities and congenital syndrome (29.0%), lung-airway conditions (11.8%), craniofacial syndrome (15.1%) and severe obesity (14.0%). More than two-thirds had severe SDB (66.7%) and the most common one was obstructive sleep apnoea in 66.7%. We found that 92.5% received long-term therapy for more than 3 months and the mean treatment duration was 3.3 ± 2.7 years. A non-invasive mask interface was used in 94.7% of cases and 5.3% needed tracheostomy ventilation. More than a quarter (26.7%) achieved disease resolution during the study period. CONCLUSION Most children who needed long-term home respiratory support had complex conditions and severe, persistent SDB.

Arrangement of residence before hospital discharge for children on home-invasive mechanical ventilation. Pediatr Pulmonol 2023. [PMID: 37983751 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
Children on long-term home mechanical ventilation are a growing population due to clinical and technological advances and the benefit for the child's quality of life. Invasive home ventilation is one of the most complex therapies offered in the home setting, requiring adequate home environment and appropriate equipment and supplies before discharge. The transition from hospital to home represents a vulnerable period that can be facilitated with an established transition plan with multidisciplinary team involvement. Readiness for home care is achieved when the patient is stable and has been transitioned from a critical care ventilator to a home mechanical ventilator. In parallel, comprehensive competency-based training regarding the knowledge and skills needed to help families use the equipment confidently and safely. Before discharge, families should be counseled on an adequate home environment to ensure a safe transition. The residence arrangement may include physical space modifications, verifying electrical installation, or moving to another home. Durable medical equipment and supplies must be ordered, and community healthcare support arranged. Parents should receive practical advice on setting up the equipment at home and on preventive measures to minimize complications related to tracheostomy and ventilator dependence, including regular maintenance and replacement of necessary equipment. Given the overall impact of invasive ventilation on home life, a structured home care action package is essential to alleviate the burdens involved.

Craniofacial growth and function in achondroplasia: a multimodal 3D study on 15 patients. Orphanet J Rare Dis 2023; 18:88. [PMID: 37072824 PMCID: PMC10114380 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02664-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 04/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Achondroplasia is the most frequent FGFR3-related chondrodysplasia, leading to rhizomelic dwarfism, craniofacial anomalies, stenosis of the foramen magnum, and sleep apnea. Craniofacial growth and its correlation with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome has not been assessed in achondroplasia. In this study, we provide a multimodal analysis of craniofacial growth and anatomo-functional correlations between craniofacial features and the severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. METHODS A multimodal study was performed based on a paediatric cohort of 15 achondroplasia patients (mean age, 7.8 ± 3.3 years), including clinical and sleep study data, 2D cephalometrics, and 3D geometric morphometry analyses, based on CT-scans (mean age at CT-scan: patients, 4.9 ± 4.9 years; controls, 3.7 ± 4.2 years). RESULTS Craniofacial phenotype was characterized by maxillo-zygomatic retrusion, deep nasal root, and prominent forehead. 2D cephalometric studies showed constant maxillo-mandibular retrusion, with excessive vertical dimensions of the lower third of the face, and modifications of cranial base angles. All patients with available CT-scan had premature fusion of skull base synchondroses. 3D morphometric analyses showed more severe craniofacial phenotypes associated with increasing patient age, predominantly regarding the midface-with increased maxillary retrusion in older patients-and the skull base-with closure of the spheno-occipital angle. At the mandibular level, both the corpus and ramus showed shape modifications with age, with shortened anteroposterior mandibular length, as well as ramus and condylar region lengths. We report a significant correlation between the severity of maxillo-mandibular retrusion and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Our study shows more severe craniofacial phenotypes at older ages, with increased maxillomandibular retrusion, and demonstrates a significant anatomo-functional correlation between the severity of midface and mandible craniofacial features and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Patterns of Change in the Severity of Airway Obstruction with Robin Sequence in Early Infancy. PLASTIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY-GLOBAL OPEN 2023; 11:e4819. [PMID: 36845867 PMCID: PMC9946428 DOI: 10.1097/gox.0000000000004819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
Previous studies suggest that infants with Robin sequence show a pattern of steady improvement in the severity of airway obstruction, and of their treatment requirements, during infancy. Methods Three infants with Robin sequence and severe obstructive sleep apnea were managed with nasal continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP). Multiple measures of airway obstruction were made during infancy, including CPAP pressure evaluations and sleep studies (screening and polysomnography studies). Parameters reported include obstructive apnea-hypopnea index, oxygen desaturation parameters, and CPAP pressures required for effective airway management. Results CPAP pressure requirements increased in all three infants during their first weeks of life. Apnea indices on polysomnography did not track with the CPAP pressure requirements. Peak pressure requirements were at 5 and 7 weeks for two patients, with subsequent gradual decline and cessation of therapy CPAP at 39 and 74 weeks, respectively. The third patient had a complicated course, jaw distraction at 17 weeks, and biphasic CPAP pressure requirement (first peak at 3 weeks, but maximum pressure at 74 weeks), with cessation of CPAP at 75 weeks. Conclusions The observed pattern of early increases in CPAP pressure requirements for infants with Robin sequence adds to the complexities of managing this disorder. Factors that may lead to this pattern of change in airway obstruction are discussed.

Predicting hypercapnia and hypoxia by the ventilator's built-in software in children on long-term non-invasive ventilation: A pilot study. Front Pediatr 2023; 11:1158396. [PMID: 37168806 PMCID: PMC10166201 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2023.1158396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Follow-up of children on long-term non-invasive ventilation (NIV) could be improved by telemonitoring, using the ventilator's built-in software (BIS) parameters as alternative for in-hospital sleep studies to reduce costs, enhance patient independence and contribute to early detection of infections. This pilot study investigated whether analysis of BIS parameters can predict abnormal nocturnal transcutaneous CO2 (TcCO2) and saturation (SpO2) measurements in children on long-term NIV. Methods Children on long-term NIV in follow-up at the Antwerp University Hospital were retrospectively included. Nocturnal TcCO2 and SpO2 measurements were collected together with BIS parameters at three different time points: the night of the sleep study (BIS1), mean values from 48 h (BIS2) and 72 h (BIS3) before the sleep study. Predictions were calculated for following outcome measures: % recording time TcCO2 > 46.9 mmHg (%RT TcCO2; abnormal if ≥2%), recording time SpO2 < 93% (RT SpO2; abnormal if >1 h), abnormal TcCO2 or SpO2, mean TcCO2, mean SpO2. Results 69 patients were included. %RT TcCO2 was separately predicted by reached tidal volume2 [OR 0.97 (0.93; 1.00); p = 0.051; AUC = 30%] and reached IPAP1 [OR 1.05 (1.00; 1.10); p = 0.050; AUC = 66%]. Leak1 predicted RT SpO2 [OR 1.21 (1.02; 1.43); p = 0.025; AUC = 84%]. Mean TcCO2 correlated with reached tidal volume2 (R2 0.10, p = 0.033). Discussion Certain BIS parameters can predict nocturnal hypercapnia and desaturation in children on long-term NIV. Future studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to further investigate the predictive value of the identified BIS parameters.

[PMID: 36270935 DOI: 10.1016/j.nmd.2022.09.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
The aim of the study was to describe the characteristics of children with neuromuscular diseases treated with long term noninvasive ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure in France. On June 1st 2019, 387 patients (63% boys, mean age 11.2 ± 5.5 years) were treated with long term noninvasive ventilation/continuous positive airway pressure. Thirty three percent of patients had spinal muscular atrophy, 30% congenital myopathy/dystrophy, 20% Duchenne muscular dystrophy, 7% Steinert myotonic dystrophy, and 9% other neuromuscular diseases. Ninety-four percent of patients were treated with long term noninvasive ventilation and 6% with continuous positive airway pressure. Treatment was initiated electively for 85% of patients, mainly on an abnormal overnight gas exchange recording (38% of patients). Noninvasive ventilation/continuous positive airway pressure was initiated during a respiratory exacerbation in 15% of patients. Mean duration of noninvasive ventilation/continuous positive airway pressure was 3.3 ± 3.1 years. Mean objective long term noninvasive ventilation/continuous positive airway pressure use was 8.0 ± 3.1 h/24. Spinal muscular atrophy, congenital myopathy/dystrophy, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy represented 83% of children with neuromuscular diseases treated with long term noninvasive ventilation in France. Screening for nocturnal hypoventilation was satisfactory as noninvasive ventilation /continuous positive airway pressure was predominantly initiated electively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Rapid implementation of home sleep studies during the first UK COVID-19 'lockdown'-completion rates, family feedback and factors that predict success. DESIGN We included all patients who had a sleep study conducted at home instead of as inpatient from 30 March 2020 to 30 June 2020. Studies with less than 4 hours of data for analysis were defined 'unsuccessful'. RESULTS 137 patients were included. 96 underwent home respiratory polygraphy (HRP), median age 5.5 years. 41 had oxycapnography (O2/CO2), median age 5 years. 56% HRP and 83% O2/CO2 were successful. A diagnosis of autism predicted a lower success rate (29%) as did age under 5 years. CONCLUSION Switching studies rapidly from an inpatient to a home environment is possible, but there are several challenges that include a higher failure rate in younger children and those with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children receiving home medical care need special attention to prevent unexpected death. The aim of this study was to clarify the factors contributing to death in children receiving home medical care from the child death review database. METHODS Children receiving home medical care were enrolled from the child death review database from 2014 to 2016 in Aichi prefecture, Japan, with a population of one million children. Types of medical care and factors contributing to death were examined. RESULTS Of the 631 children who died, 40 children (6%) were receiving home medical care (21: tracheostomy; 19: ventilator; 26: suctioning of naso-oral secretions; 19: oxygen inhalation; 32: tube feeding; 6: urethral catheterization; and 1: peritoneal dialysis). The death rate was 50 times that in the general population of children. Ten children had contributory factors that seemed to be preventable. In four children, the families could not replace the tracheostomy tubes during an accident. In three, oxygen saturation or ventilator alarms were not set appropriately. In two, an oxygen cylinder became empty. One child fell down from a seat in a car. CONCLUSIONS Improvement of devices and correct guidance to caregivers may reduce the death rate in children receiving home medical care. IMPACT Children receiving home medical care, such as tracheostomy care, mechanical ventilation, or tube feeding, need special attention to prevent unexpected death. In this population-based child death review, 6% of children received home medical care, and it was estimated that 1 of 100 children receiving home medical care died per year. One-quarter of the deaths could be preventable by caregiver education or development of devices.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in infants and children with craniofacial malformations. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) represents an effective noninvasive treatment for severe upper airway obstruction in these children, reducing the need of surgery or a tracheostomy. The decision to start CPAP should be discussed by a multidisciplinary team in order to decide the optimal individualized treatment strategy. CPAP initiation depends on patients' clinical characteristics and local practices, with an increase tendency towards an outpatient program. Follow-up and monitoring strategy varies among centers but benefits from the analysis of built-in software data in order to assess objective adherence and breathing parameters, reducing the need of in-hospital sleep studies. The possibility to wean CPAP should be periodically checked after surgical treatment or when spontaneous resolution is suspected. Finally, these infants with craniofacial malformations should have a long term follow up because of the risk of OSA recurrence over time.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a neuromuscular disorder that leads to chronic respiratory insufficiency and failure. Use of home noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been linked to improved outcomes including reduced mortality. Despite the importance of NIV, factors promoting optimal NIV usage and determinants of non-adherence have not been rigorously examined. Moreover, given that respiratory issues in DMD span between childhood and adulthood, examination across a broad age group is needed. The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate NIV usage across a broad spectrum of DMD patients including both children and adults; and (2) identify biological and socioeconomic determinants of NIV usage and NIV non-adherence. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of all DMD patients from Feb 2016 to Feb 2020 who underwent evaluation at associated pediatric and adult neuromuscular disease clinics. NIV use was determined objectively from device downloads. A priori, we defined non-adherence as <4 hours use per night, quantified as the percentage of nights below this threshold across a 30-day period within 6 months of a clinic visit. We also assessed the average hours of NIV usage over this time period. Predictors examined included demographics, social determinants, and pulmonary function. RESULTS 33 patients with DMD were identified, 29 (87%) of whom were using NIV (13 age < 21 years). Mean age was 22.9±6.6 years (range 13-39 years), BMI was 23.4±10.4 kg/m², and seated forced vital capacity (FVC) was 23%±18% predicted. Mean nightly NIV usage was 7.4±3.8 hours and mean percentage of non-adherent nights was 13%±30%. In univariable analysis, age did not predict use. Those with lower FVC had higher NIV usage hours (p=0.01) and a trend toward less non-adherence (p=0.06). Higher estimated household income demonstrated a trend towards increased usage hours and less non-adherence (both p=0.08). Multivariable analysis found increased usage hours were predicted best by higher income, higher IPAP, and higher bicarbonate. Non-adherence was higher in those with lower income or higher FVC. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of adult and pediatric DMD patients, most individuals were using NIV. While usage hours were higher with lower lung function, substantial variability remains unexplained by examined factors. Non-adherence was observed in some individuals, including those with advanced disease. Further investigations should focus on evaluating patient-oriented outcomes in order to define optimal NIV usage across the spectrum of disease, and determine strategies to counteract issues with non-adherence.
