    Author: Arcaro G, Braccioni F, Gallan F, Marchi MR, Vianello A.
    Journal: J Clin Anesth; 2012 Feb; 24(1):55-7. PubMed ID: 22284320.
    Abstract:
    The development of acute respiratory failure (ARF) secondary to respiratory tract infection is a common event in patients affected with osteogenesis imperfecta type III. Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is increasingly administered to treat severe ARF of various origin. The use of NPPV in two patients with severe ARF secondary to osteogenesis imperfecta type III is presented.
