Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation in Conventional Respiratory Ward

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Noninvasive Ventilation Outside Intensive Care Unit

Abstract

Acute respiratory failure is a very common cause of in-hospital emergencies (Cabrini et al., Minerva Anestesiol 76(1):71, 2010). As the number of patients requiring ventilator treatment is increasing, hospitals face a lack of beds in intensive care units (Kim et al., Int J Environ Res Public Health 18:2877, 2021). Due to the development of medical devices and improvement in medical equipment quality, the early start of noninvasive ventilation programs has improved patients’ survival rates and performance (Kim et al., Int J Environ Res Public Health 18:2877, 2021). All services, including conventional respiratory wards (CRWs), must establish local protocols to follow and monitor these patients to reduce the risk of unsafe use of NIMV (Cabrini et al., Minerva Anestesiol 76(1):71, 2010).
