ABSTRACT

About 20% of patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) may develop myasthenic crisis (MC) requiring ventilation, either invasive (MV) or non-invasive (NIV) and intensive unit care (ICU). NIV failure in patients with MC can occur up to 60% of cases admitted to ICU. Moreover it is not known the outcome of MC receiving NIV. Purpose of this study was to identify predictors of outcome in MC who underwent non-invasive ventilator support outside ICU setting. We enrolled 90 patients, 53 females and 37 males admitted to University Hospital of Modena (Italy) between January 2000 and September 2020. Median age at MC was 65 years. Thirty-four patients (37.8%) required MV. Thymectomy was performed in 45 cases, associated with thymoma in 55%, with hyperplastic thymus in 33%. First-line treatment was plasmaexchange (38.8%) or intravenous immunoglobulins (45.6%). Males exhibited higher risk of MV than females .Patients in MV were treated with plasmaexchange as first-line therapy . Our in-hospital mortality rate was low. Nine patients underwent tracheostomy which was significantly related to male gender. Comorbidities had significant effect on length of ICU .Our study confirms as predictors of prognosis in our patients male gender, older age at onset, infections as trigger, pneumonia.
