Abstract
NIV is an effective alternative for elderly people requiring ventilator support for acute cardiorespiratory failure or during weaning in chronic critically ill patients. Its success is dependent on various factors. Several prognostic factors should be taken into consideration when applying NIV to post-extubation chronic critically ill patients, a specific group of patients requiring a holistic approach in their management.
