Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate the levels of self-perceived anguish and low quality of life among healthcare professionals caring for dying patients during the COVID-19 pandemic, while also determining various associated characteristics.
- - An online survey conducted from July to October 2020 included 102 healthcare workers (mostly physicians, physiotherapists, and nurses) and found that 69.6% reported anguish, primarily among physicians, and 64.7% reported low quality of life, linked to inadequate communication with patients' families.
- - Findings suggest that better support for healthcare professionals, particularly in communication and agreement on end-of-life care, is crucial to mitigate the psychological impact of the pandemic on their well-being.

Objective: This study analyzed acute respiratory failure caused by acute pulmonary edema, as well as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation, that was treated with non-invasive mechanical ventilation to identify the factors that are associated with the success or failure non-invasive mechanical ventilation in urgent and emergency service.
Methods: This study was a prospective, descriptive and analytical study. We included patients of both genders aged >18 years who used non-invasive mechanical ventilation due to acute respiratory failure that was secondary to acute pulmonary edema or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation.
