Abstract(s)
Several studies have demonstrated that non-invasive home mechanical ventilation
is a therapy that brings benefits to people with type 2 respiratory failure
and their family.
The objective of this study is to explore the implications of non-invasive home
ventilation for the user’s family.
An exploratory desc riptive study with quantitative qualitative nature in 10
families using noninvasive home ventilation. Mainly, they are nuclear families (8)
belonging to the middle class (7). The data were collected through a semi-structured
interview, with a data collection instrument that integrated sociodemographic
issues and two open questions related to the participants’ perspective
on the implications of non-invasive home ventilation for the family. They were
processed with descriptive statistics and content analysis.
From the narratives, three categories emerged: maladjustment, benefits and
family process. They are divided into eight subcategories that describe the
issues related to the use of non-invasive home ventilation: discomfort, sleep impairment,
silence, crisis reduction, role interaction, dynamic relationship, coping
and communication.
The results demonstrate that non-invasive mechanical ventilation has implications
for the users´ families, can be a stress cause, bring benefits and cause
changes in the family process.
