Post-Discharge non-invasive ventilation for hypercapnic respiratory failure: Outcomes in a Rural Cohort
Hypercapnic respiratory failure patients discharged home with non-invasive ventilation in the adherent group had significantly lower mortality and emergency department visits. Apart from mask intolerance, low health literacy and transfer to skilled nursing facilities were identified as major reasons for non-adherence.
