Abstract
The introduction of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) outside the intensive care unit (ICU) is increasing, essentially due to resource-limited health care systems. However, not all patients can be transferred to a common ward and some stability situations must be met. It is important to choose the proper moment for the transference and have qualified personnel to supervise these patients in the ward. This chapter summarizes the discharge plan of a patient on NIV from ICU to a medical ward.
