Efficacy of treatment of acute left ventricular failure by non-invasive positive pressure ventilation in ICU
LI Jun
Abstract：Objective To investigate the efficacy of treatment of acute left ventricular failure by non-invasive positive pressure ventilation ( NIPPV) .Methods Sixty-four patients with acute left ventricular failure were randomly divided into the observation group(n=32) and the control group(n=32).The control group was treated by conven-tional therapy,including oxygen inhalation ,strengthening myocardial contraction ,diuresis,vasodilator and so on; the observation group was treated by NIPPV on the basis of conventional therapy .The changes in heart rate , respiration, blood pressure , blood oxygen saturation and the heart function were observed before treatment , at 24 hours and 72 hours after treatment,respectively.Results At 24 hours after treatment, the total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (93.75%vs 71.87%).At 72 hours after treatment the improvement in PaO2 , PaCO2 , pH, BNP in the observation group were significantly better than that in the control group , the differ- <br> ence was significant ( P<0.01 ) .Conclusion NIPPV combined with conventional therapy can significantly improve symptoms of patients with acute left ventricular failure ,and save the life of patients .
