OnAir, with Clinical Respiratory News

The world has changed profoundly in the 25 years since the internet became mainstream. Is it finally healthcare’s turn to experience a dramatic data-driven transformation? Daniela Ehrsam-Tosi and ResMed’s Chief Medical Officer Carlos Nunez explore the risks, realities and research potential of real-world data and deep machine learning. Their discussion starts with the perennial challenges of rising healthcare costs and ageing populations and invites us to look to a future where our data isn’t just used to serve us relevant advertising, but can also provide us with personalised healthcare in almost real time.

Which factors make a real difference when it comes to keeping NIV patients comfortable, motivated and well cared for at home? In this episode of the OnAir podcast, respiratory expert Dr Jean-Michel Arnal and host Nina Wiklund discuss key issues in the delivery of home NIV, with a particular focus on troubleshooting, telemonitoring and patient engagement.
As an ICU physician and the author of both a popular book1 and a recent article on home ventilation monitoring2, Dr Arnal has a deep interest and extensive experience in this field. He shares insights on using ventilator waveforms to identify common asynchronies, explains why the cycle feature is so important for patient comfort, and argues that our focus on finding data-driven predictors of exacerbation might be causing us to overlook an important low-tech solution.
Listen now for an engaging tour of key topics in home NIV that provides useful insights for NIV experts while remaining accessible to anyone looking to learn more about the subject.

In this episode of OnAir, we explore how Sweden is shaking up its approach to the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea. Professor Ludger Grote explains the background and benefits of the Swedish National Sleep Guidelines, which are part of a concerted effort to improve diagnosis, waiting times, treatment and outcomes for patients across the country. The new, comprehensive approach is based on a diagnostic framework and treatment matrix that has been developed using registry data and input from both patients and professionals. Listen now to learn how and why Sweden is taking a broader view of OSA and what Prof. Grote thinks about the role of AHI and hypoxic burden in diagnosis.

Following our previous podcast, which delved into the evolution of home high-flow therapy (HFT) and its implications for patient care, Dr Maxime Patout returns to offer more insights into the topic. This time round he describes the objectives of the large HiFAE trial he’s leading to assess the benefit of HFT when initiated after a severe exacerbation of COPD. Focused on French patients with severe forms of the condition, the study – which saw its first patient enrolled in late 2022 – aims to show that using HFT in a home setting can indeed decrease both the rate of exacerbations and mortality, as well as improve quality of life and respiratory function.
