Cardiac arrest and complications during non-invasive ventilation: a systematic review and meta-analysis with meta-regression.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the incidence rate of cardiac arrest and severe complications occurring under non-invasive ventilation (NIV).

Methods

We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies between 1981 and 2020 that enrolled adults in whom NIV was used to treat acute respiratory failure (ARF). We generated the pooled incidence and confidence interval (95% CI) of NIV-related cardiac arrest per patient (primary outcome) and performed a meta-regression to assess the association with study characteristics. We also generated the pooled incidences of NIV failure and hospital mortality.

Results

Three hundred and eight studies included a total of 7,601,148 participants with 36,326 patient
