EDITORIAL Noninvasive ventilation : When , how and where ?
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) of any origin is commonly seen in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). When clinical improvement of ARF is not achieved with the usual medical treatment, tracheal intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) prove necessary--a situation which in turn implies a significant increase in morbidity--mortality. In the late 1990s, the need to avoid the complications of...

متن کاملWhere should noninvasive ventilation be delivered?
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has assumed an important role in the management of certain types of respiratory failure in acute-care hospitals. However, the optimal location for NIV has been a matter of debate. Some have argued that all patients begun on NIV in the acute-care setting should go to an intensive care unit (ICU), but this is impractical because ICU beds are often unavailable, and it...
متن کاملThe where-to-do-it of noninvasive ventilation revisited.
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) represents the standard of care in acute respiratory failure.1 In acute hypercapnic ventilatory failure due to COPD exacerbations and acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, NIV is without doubt highly effective in terms of reduced intubation rates and mortality.2,3 As a consequence of the growing amount of evidence for these benefits, NIV use has been ever increasing d...
متن کاملNoninvasive ventilation.
Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation have traditionally been employed in patients with acute respiratory insufficiency. However, this form of management can have serious adverse effects, mainly infections and barotrauma. Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been shown to be an effective alternative, as it reduces both the frequency of complications and cost of care. In fact, NIV is c...
