Abstract
Home non-invasive ventilation has become a well-established form of therapy over the last few decades. Many conditions benefit from home NIV, for instance, patients with motor neurone disease (MND) and chest wall deformities that lead to respiratory complications. Home NIV has been shown to increase survival and improve quality of life in many chest wall diseases and MND. There is also substantial evidence to indicate that NIV can palliate symptoms of Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS). Also, Home NIV is a valuable tool in the management of patients with severe COPD and has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic respiratory failure. However, the usefulness of home NIV varies according to compliance. This review investigates the factors affecting compliance with home NIV. Compliance remains to be an incredibly complex matter. Yet, due to the importance of compliance and its effect on outcomes, investigating influencing variables is a priority.
Keywords: Home NIV, OHS, MND, patient compliance, demography, ventilator.
