Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation and Neuropsychiatric Disorders

Abstract

Mental health issues such as depression and anxiety are common comorbidities of individuals suffering from chronic respiratory disorders. Anxiety & Depression decreases the quality of life of these affected individuals by altering their function of daily living (affecting physical, emotional, and social roles), increasing mortality and healthcare utilization. The management of co-morbid neuropsychological conditions demands a thorough knowledge of pathophysiology and subtle nuances of general and psychopharmacology, along with clinical knowledge knitted with soft skills. There is positive evidence of neuropsychiatric benefits from pulmonary rehabilitation, especially improved mood, and cognitive performance. Further research is needed to examine the effects of specific components of PR on the neuropsychological function of these patients.
