Abstract
Artificial ventilation is a lifesaving measure in the setting of respiratory failure. However, invasive ventilation using endotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube is ridden with risks and side effects. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has proven to be a valuable tool in some patients that don’t require invasive methods. From the primitive negative pressure “Iron Lung” ventilators to the most sophisticated automated positive pressure delivery ventilators, NIV has come a long way to become an important part of the care of the patients in respiratory failure. In this chapter, we aim to discuss the basic principles involved in NIV and the various NIV options available to the patients.
