Abstract
Noninvasive mechanical ventilation has been widely used over the past decades because it prevents major complications from invasive mechanical ventilation. Its application has great advantageous effects on acute respiratory failure. Its most beneficial effects are documented in acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive lung disease with positive impact in mortality, hospital length of stay and rate of endotracheal intubation.
