Abstract
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may increase the risk of carbon dioxide (CO2) rebreathing for two reasons: firstly, the single-limb circuit that is preferentially used for NIV causes patients to exhale into the same space from which they inhale, and, secondly, the interfaces used for NIV increase dead space.
