About this title

Synopsis

This book presents the third option for the elderly, disabled, and deconditioned person hospitalized, becoming too weak to breathe and cough, and offered only a (tracheostomy) tube through the neck, or oxygen and morphine for an oblivious death. The third option, that is rarely if ever offered in the United States, is assisting breathing and coughing by providing deeper breath volumes via a simple mouthpiece or nasal interface. Although not "rocket science," physicians do not offer full noninvasive ventilatory support alternatives to invasive airway tubes and invasive respiratory support. This book is a must if you have elderly or disabled family members at risk of weakening and developing respiratory problems due to weak breathing and coughing that turns otherwise benign colds. or surgerical procedures under general anesthesia, into pneumonias and respiratory failure. It is a must for the very elderly, and people with severe muscle weakness due to neuromuscular conditions, spinal cord injury, scoliosis, and severe debilitation associated with medical conditions including some cancers.
