    Abstract Rationale: Caring for children dependent upon continuous invasive ventilation in the home setting requires extensive expertise, coordination, and can result in impaired caregiver quality of life. Less is known regarding the experiences of caregivers with children requiring continuous noninvasive ventilation.
    Objectives: To evaluate caregiver experiences with invasive and noninvasive home mechanical ventilation, and to compare parental quality of life based on the child's mode of ventilation.
    Methods: Caregivers of infants who were discharged home with continuous ventilatory support were recruited to complete semi-structured qualitative interviews. Interviews explored their decision-making process, the transition to home, and health related quality of life.
    Results: Caregivers of 16 children were interviewed, of whom eight were treated with continuous invasive ventilation, and eight with continuous noninvasive ventilation. The decision to pursue home ventilation in both groups was greatly influenced by the desire to be discharged and reunite the family at home. Following the transition to home, caregivers from both groups described high rates of insomnia, emotional distress, work disruption and familial hardship. Despite this, parents were overwhelmingly pleased with the decision to proceed with home ventilation and perceived their children to be living enriched lives outside of the hospital. Factors associated with easing the transition to home were in-hospital training and the presence of a robust support system.
    Conclusions: Lives of families with children dependent on continuous mechanical ventilation are characterized by isolation, lifestyle disruption, adverse mental and physical health consequences, and impaired interpersonal relationships, irrespective of the mode of ventilation.

    Abstract Children with progressive neuromuscular weakness undergo a stereotypical progression of respiratory involvement, beginning with impaired airway clearance and progressing to nocturnal and then diurnal ventilatory failure. This review examines issues related to airway clearance and mucus mobilization, sleep problems, and use of assisted ventilation in children with neuromuscular diseases. Interventions for each of these problems have been created or adapted for the pediatric population. The use of airway clearance therapies and assisted ventilation have improved survival of children with neuromuscular weakness. Questions regarding the best time to introduce some therapies, the therapeutic utility of certain interventions, and the cost-effectiveness of various treatments demand further investigation. Studies that assess the potential to improve quality of life and reduce hospitalizations and frequency of lower-respiratory tract infections will help clinicians to decide which techniques are best suited for use in children. As children with neuromuscular disease survive longer, coordinated programs for transitioning these patients to adult care must be developed to enhance their quality of life.

    Abstract There is a variety of portable ventilators on the market, each with its' own features. A clinician needs to understand the unique characteristics of the ventilators available in his or her region, as well as the nuances of primary and secondary settings for these portable home ventilators in order to create a comfortable breath that allows for adequate gas exchange for the patient. Understanding the interplay of the portable home ventilator and the ventilator circuit is also a key component of transitioning a patient to a portable home ventilator. This review details characteristics of some of the more commonly used machines in the United States, as well as the settings to be considered in supporting a child with chronic respiratory failure outside of the hospital. As more patients are being discharged from the hospital with mechanical home ventilation, new ventilators are being developed that expand upon features of current machines.

    Abstract The abdominal wall is an integral component of the chest wall. Defects in the ventral abdominal wall alter respiratory mechanics and can impair diaphragm function. Congenital abdominal wall defects also are associated with abnormalities in lung growth and development that lead to pulmonary hypoplasia, pulmonary hypertension, and alterations in thoracic cage formation. Although infants with ventral abdominal wall defects can experience life-threatening pulmonary complications, older children typically experience a more benign respiratory course. Studies of lung and chest wall function in older children and adolescents with congenital abdominal wall defects are few; such investigations could provide strategies for improved respiratory performance, avoidance of respiratory morbidity, and enhanced exercise ability for these children.

    Abstract This review addresses how anomalous cardiovascular anatomy imparts consequences to the airway, respiratory system mechanics, pulmonary vascular system, and lymphatic system. Abnormal formation or enlargement of great vessels can compress airways and cause large and small airway obstructions. Alterations in pulmonary blood flow associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) can cause abnormalities in pulmonary mechanics and limitation of exercise. CHD can lead to pulmonary arterial hypertension. Lymphatic abnormalities associated with CHD can cause pulmonary edema, chylothorax, or plastic bronchitis. Understanding how the cardiovascular system has an impact on pulmonary growth and function can help determine options and timing of intervention.

    Abstract Improvements in medical care have allowed many children with neuromuscular disease and chronic respiratory failure to survive into adulthood. There are currently no published guidelines to facilitate transition from pediatric to adult respiratory care in this population. The transition process in neuromuscular disease and chronic respiratory failure is uniquely challenging in that the patients are often declining in health and losing independence as they approach adulthood. Barriers to transition include lack of access to adult providers, incompatible health insurance, loss of resources within patients' medical structures, absence of transition preparation, and patient and family insecurity with a new healthcare system. The six core elements and optimal time frame of transition should be applied, with special consideration of the psychosocial aspects associated with neuromuscular disease. Successful transition revolves around information, open communication between young adults and their medical care team, and individualized planning to ensure optimal health and quality of life.

    Abstract Intrathoracic tracheomalacia is characterized by increased compliance of the central airway within the thorax. This leads to excessive dynamic collapse during exhalation or periods of increased intrathoracic pressure such as crying. Extrathoracic tracheomalacia involves dynamic collapse of the airway between the glottis and sternal notch that occurs during inhalation rather than exhalation. The tone of the posterior membrane of the trachea increases throughout development and childhood, as does the rigidity of the tracheal cartilage. Abnormalities of airway maturation result in congenital tracheomalacia. Acquired tracheomalacia occurs in the normally developed trachea due to trauma, external compression, or airway inflammation. Although tracheomalacia can be suspected by history, physical examination, and supportive radiographic findings, flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy remains the "gold standard" for diagnosis. Current treatment strategies involve pharmacotherapy with cholinergic agents, positive pressure ventilation, and surgical repair.
