CORRESPONDENCE:

From the authors:

We are aware that J.R. Bach has strong opinions on noninvasive ventilation in neuromuscular disease. The views expressed in our review 1 do not diverge greatly from the management he suggests. However, we differ in believing that a flexible approach is sensible and that there should be flexibility in management plans, especially for completely ventilator-dependant patients. His comments about volume-preset ventilators are not particularly relevant to European practice since pressure-preset ventilators are much more commonly used.
