Central Neurogenic Respiratory Failure: A Challenging Diagnosis

Abstract: Background: Central nervous system lesions are rare causes of respiratory failure. Simple observation of the breathing pattern can help localize the lesion, but the examiner needs to be aware of potential pitfalls such as metabolic or pulmonary alterations. Methods: We describe 3 cases in which central neurogenic respiratory failure occurred simultaneously with other alterations or in an unusual presentation. Results: All patients were diagnosed with central neurogenic respiratory failure and treated for it wi… Show more

“…In our meta-analysis, the mortality rate of COVID-19 cases with at least one CNS symptom was 10.47%, which is much higher than the mortality rate of the general infected population [107]. can induce acute respiratory failure [108,119]. Therefore, considering all effective factors, it can provide clinicians to choose the best way in an attempt to manage this pandemic more efficiently.…”

“…However, it is necessary to investigate the various CNS manifestations of COVID-19 since they are associated with increased severity and mortality [16]. Not only respiratory system dysfunction, but also impairment of respiratory control centers in the CNS (brain stem) can induce acute respiratory failure [108, 119]. Therefore, considering all effective factors, it can provide clinicians to choose the best way in an attempt to manage this pandemic more efficiently.…”

“…However, it is necessary to investigate the various CNS manifestations of COVID‐19 since they are associated with increased severity and mortality (Mao et al., 2020). Not only respiratory system dysfunction, but also impairment of respiratory control centers in the CNS (brain stem) can induce acute respiratory failure (Carvalho et al., 2011; Li, Bai, et al., 2020). Therefore, considering all effective factors, it can provide clinicians to choose the best way in an attempt to manage this pandemic more efficiently.…”
