Abstract:
:Over a 6 years' period (1980-1986), 272 patients with chronic respiratory disease were admitted for respiratory failure to the same intensive care unit. The series was characterized by the high mean age of the patients (69.3 years) and by the high proportion of those who were ventilated (75%); 33.7% of the patients died within 1 month of discharge. The survival rate at 5 years estimated by the actuarial survival curve was 28%. Parameters measured during the acute decompensation phase were analyzed statistically. The main prognostic factors regarded as unfavourable were: old age and associated visceral failure particularly, important loss of weight and muscular atrophy, pre-existing neurological sequelae, left ventricular dysfunction, simplified Le Gall score above 15, presence of respiratory encephalopathy, stroke or viral infection as precipitating factors of decompensation, transfer from other hospital units after failure of medical treatment, and need for mechanical ventilation for more than 30 days.
