“…Subsequently, these passengers could disseminate the infection at their destinations worldwide [14,63]. Urgent protective and therapeutic actions are considered necessary for pH1N1, SARS and TB, which mostly affect immune-compromised populations [8,12,16,47].…”

“…Currently, available recommendations are mainly based on published studies and experiences from the first SARS epidemic in 2003 [8,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. The pivotal study arguing that NIV poses a high risk for spread of infection is based on the assessment of particle dispersion using an experimental model.…”

“…During the SARS pandemic, nearly half of all SARS victims were healthcare workers, highlighting the occupational risks associated with the care of infectious pneumonias and pandemic infections [11][12][13][14]. Evidence related to airborne transmission of the SARS virus and the potential risk of aerosol generation with the use of NIV in SARS still remain controversial [8,9,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

Noninvasive mechanical ventilation in high-risk pulmonary infections: a clinical review

et al. 2014

The aim of this article was to review the role of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in acute pulmonary infectious diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), H1N1 and tuberculosis, and to assess the risk of disease transmission with the use of NIV from patients to healthcare workers.We performed a clinical review by searching Medline and EMBASE. These databases were searched for articles on ''clinical trials'' and ''randomised controlled trials''. The keywords selected were non-invasive ventilation pulmonary infections, influenza-A (H1N1), SARS and tuberculosis. These terms were crossreferenced with the following keywords: health care workers, airborne infections, complications, intensive care unit and pandemic. The members of the International NIV Network examined the major results regarding NIV applications and SARS, H1N1 and tuberculosis. Cross-referencing mechanical ventilation with SARS yielded 76 studies, of which 10 studies involved the use of NIV and five were ultimately selected for inclusion in this review. Cross-referencing with H1N1 yielded 275 studies, of which 27 involved NIV. Of these, 22 were selected for review. Cross-referencing with tuberculosis yielded 285 studies, of which 15 involved NIV and from these seven were selected. In total 34 studies were selected for this review.NIV, when applied early in selected patients with SARS, H1N1 and acute pulmonary tuberculosis infections, can reverse respiratory failure. There are only a few reports of infectious disease transmission among healthcare workers. @ERSpublications NIV in high risk pulmonary infection management can prevent respiratory failure in ICUs with well trained staff

“…Based on the Toronto experience with SARS, in which some clinicians contracted SARS when a patient was intubated following NIV failure, the use of NIV in these patients was discouraged. 32 Two subsequent observational studies from China, 33,34 however, found no evidence of viral spread to clinicians who took appropriate precautions. In the event of a bird flu pandemic, ventilator resources are likely to be severely strained, and NIV may offer a means of supporting some of the afflicted, mainly those with initial respiratory failure.…”
