Health Communication and Adherence to Noninvasive Ventilation in Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Domiciliary noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is a standard treatment for improving health outcomes among patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (CHRF). However, poor adherence substantially limits its therapeutic effectiveness.

Objective

To determine the effect of an information-motivation-behavioral (IMB) skills-based intervention (IMB-NIV program) on NIV adherence, patient-reported health outcomes, and health service use among patients with CHRF.

Design, setting, and participants

This multisite, assessor-blinded, randomized clinical trial was conducted from January 2022 to March 2023 at respiratory clinics of 2 regional hospitals in Hong Kong among patients with CHRF who had been nonadherent to prescribed domiciliary NIV.
