The inclusion body myositis is an inflammatory myopathy that leads to chronic muscle inflammation associated with muscle weakness. It is characterized by a restrictive ventilatory syndrome requiring ventilatory support under non-invasive ventilation. The authors describe a clinical case and the anaesthetic management of a patient with inclusion body myopathy candidate for vertebroplasty, which highlights the importance of locoregional anaesthesia and of noninvasive ventilation and includes assisted cough techniques, maintained throughout the perioperative period.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of medroxyprogesterone on blood gases and short-term hospital outcomes in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease treating with noninvasive ventilation: A randomized clinical trial.
J Res Med Sci

Department of Internal Medicine, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran.
Background: In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of medroxyprogesterone on hospital short clinical outcomes and ABG parameters in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation under treatments with noninvasive ventilation (NIV) treated with progesterone 15 mg in comparison with placebo.
Materials And Methods: This is a double-blinded clinical trial that was performed in 2020-2021 in Isfahan, Iran, on 60 patients with COPD exacerbation that require NIV. All patients received short-acting beta-agonists, short-acting anticholinergics, systemic corticosteroids, and NIV.

Background: Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) uses positive pressure to assist people with respiratory muscle weakness or severe respiratory compromise to breathe. Most people use this treatment during sleep when breathing is most susceptible to instability. The benefits of using NIV in motor neurone disease (MND) are well-established.

Introduction: Patients recovering from severe acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) have a 30-day readmission rate of 20%. This study evaluated the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial to evaluate clinical, patient-reported and physiological effects of home high-flow therapy (HFT) in addition to usual medical therapy, in eucapnic patients recovering from AECOPD to support the design of a phase 3 trial.
Methods: A mixed-methods feasibility randomised controlled trial (quantitative primacy, concurrently embedded qualitative evaluation) (ISRCTN15949009) recruiting consecutive non-obese patients hospitalised with AECOPD not requiring acute non-invasive ventilation.

Unlabelled: Congenital myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a rare entity that can pose a diagnostic challenge, especially if other processes such as prematurity coexist.
Objective: to describe the typical presentation of congenital DM1 and thus increase diagnostic suspicion.
Clinical Case: A 29-week preterm female newborn who required non-invasive mechanical ventilation until 41 weeks postmenstrual age; she presented with apnea requiring manual ventilation with a self-inflating bag and cardiac massage.

Viral infections are the main cause of acute respiratory failure in infants, which can progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), with high morbidity and mortality, so it is essential to imple ment strategies that prevent this progression. Recently, it has been proposed that increased work of breathing would not only be a warning symptom during the evolution of acute respiratory failure, but also a mechanism for the progression of injury, both lungs and diaphragm, coining the concept of patient self-inflicted lung injury. Since the first reports of ARDS, the usefulness of the use of con tinuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been raised, a non-invasive respiratory support therapy with wide access and low cost, capable of improving oxygenation and work of breathing.
