History of Mechanical Ventilation
Background: In neuromuscular diseases, mechanical ventilation can be used to assist weakened respiratory muscles or compensate for a loss of respiratory control. A return on History may let understand the different strategies for using non-invasive and invasive of mechanical ventilation. Methods: A literature review was carried out from the PubMed, google scholar and the archives of the medical library of Descartes in Paris with the following key words "history" "mechanical ventilation" and "neuromuscular diseases". Results: France has played a major role in the development of mechanical ventilation at home. It was one of the first countries to set up a truly organized and efficient charging system. Today, the French system allows care to be taken care of at home, with genuine coordination between the hospital department, the equipment distribution network, the attending physician, the nurses, the physiotherapists, the patient and his family. Conclusion: Despite improved respiratory care, especially with the introduction of mechanical ventilation, there is a disparity in the management of respiratory care in the world.
