Ventilatory Support and Oxygen Therapy in Elder, Palliative and End-of-Life Care Patients

Abstract

The anesthetic management of elderly patients with coexisting diseases is important when considering the mortality and morbidity rates. In order to avoid tracheal intubation and the use of neuromuscular and other anesthetic agents, regional techniques are preferred for these patients. Furthermore, during regional anesthesia, respiratory support via noninvasive ventilation may allow patients to undergo more comfortable and safe operations.
