Abstract

NIV is widely used in the acute care setting for acute respiratory failure (ARF) across a variety of etiologies. NIV has become the first-choice ventilation technique in many clinical conditions, such as acute hypercapnic respiratory failure secondary to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiogenic pulmonary edema, severe hypoxemia in immunosuppressed patients, and in order to facilitate the transition from invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) to spontaneous breathing [2–4].
