In this subset of individuals, mechanical ventilation (MV) may be required. &lt;i&gt;Objectives:&lt;\/i&gt; We analysed the characteristics of a group of IPF patients undergoing MV for ARF in order to give some indications on the supposed prognosis. &lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; Hospital records of 34 consecutive patients with IPF, who underwent MV for ARF, were retrospectively examined. Demographic data, time from diagnosis, gas exchange, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score, ARF causes and MV failure were recorded. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; Fifteen subjects (group A) underwent invasive MV and 19 patients (group B) non-invasive ventilation (NIV). The 2 groups were different for disease severity (APACHE II score 24.2 \u00b1 6 vs. 19.5 \u00b1 5.9; p = 0.01). Both ventilatory strategies temporarily increased PaO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;\/sub&gt;\/FiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;\/sub&gt; as compared with spontaneous breathing (group A: 148.5 \u00b1 52 vs. 99 \u00b1 39, p = 0.0004; group B: 134 \u00b1 36 vs. 89 \u00b1 26, p = 0.0004). NIV reduced the respiratory rate (26 \u00b1 7 vs. 36 \u00b1 9 with spontaneous breathing; p = 0.002). Duration of MV correlated with the time of evolution of IPF (r = 0.45; p = 0.018). The in-hospital mortality rate was 85% (100% for invasive MV, 74% for NIV). Four of the 5 survivors died within 6 months from hospital discharge (range 2\u20136 months). &lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt; MV does not appear to have a significant impact on the survival of patients with end-stage IPF. NIV may be useful for compassionate use, providing relief from dyspnoea and avoiding aggressive approaches.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000225932","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,18]],"date-time":"2009-06-18T07:35:22Z","timestamp":1245310522000},"page":"209-215","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":83,"title":["Mechanical
