LTMV in Norway 1990-2000

• Dedicated individual health professionals

• Lack of standard of care

• LTMV initiated after acute respiratory failure

Long term mechanical ventilation

• Includes – Dependent of mechanical ventilation– Partly or 24/7> 6 weeks – Out of hospital– Invasiv and noninvasive

• Not included– Cpap /bilevel /adaptiv servoventilation– Obstructive or sentral sleep apne syndrom or Cheyne

Tasks for the HMV Centre• Competence

• Diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in adults

and children• Norwegian Registry of Patients receiving LTMV • Educating

• Health care professionals in hospitals • Care givers in the community

• Counseling and technical support• Equal access to treatment for the patients• Develop new knowledge • Establish national professional guidelines

• Registry's main purpose:

• Monitoring LTMV to contribute to a geographically equitable treatment

• Quality for patients treatment

• Research

• Register chaired by an academic committee with representatives from all four health regions

• 2012, the registry approved by the Ministry of Health as a national medical grade registry

National Registry for LTMV Established in 2002

“When the breath fail”

A six years closed cohort study of outcomes in patients requiring long-term mechanical ventilation (LTMV).

Heidi Markussen, Sverre Lehmann, Ove Fondenes, Roy Nilsen, Gerd- Karin Natvig

•The aims of these studies are to characterize and measure outcomes in LTMV in patents in the western region of Norway.

•Examines:

• Sociodemographic, physiological and clinical predictors for changes in HRQoL.

• Predictors of hospitalisations, treatment compliance, use of out-patient clinic and length of life in the six years period.

• Prevalence adults: 26,5 / 100.000

• Prevalence children: 8,1 / 100.000

• Tracheostomy: 6,7%

Challenges

• Full implementation of national guidelines in LTMV at the individual level to all health care professional

• Equal access to treatment in the country• Maintain or increase Health related Quality of life• Ethical issues• Increase research in the field of HMV• Lack of health professionals• Assess the possibilities for education in respiratory care
