Background : patients who have had tuberculosis are at risk for respiratory failure with hypercapnea from chest wall deformity and hypoxia from pulmonary sequelae 研究背景：肺结核患者中，因胸壁畸形所致的呼吸过度和后遗症导致的组织缺氧均增加呼吸衰竭的风险。
2.
We aimed to study which treatment mode is associated with the best survival in patients with the combination of respiratory failure and chest wall deformity from tuberculosis 本研究旨在探讨合并呼吸衰竭和胸壁畸形的肺结核患者的治疗模式，该模式能最大程度提高患者的生存率。
3.
Conclusion : patients with the combination of respiratory failure and chest wall deformity from tuberculosis had a significantly better survival when treated with home mechanical ventilation than with long - term oxygen therapy alone 结论：家庭机械通气比单纯长时间氧疗更能提高合并呼吸衰竭和胸壁畸形的肺结核患者的生存率。
