ICU Ventilators Versus BiPAP Ventilators in Noninvasive Ventilation

  • Chapter
Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation

Abstract

In contrast to the closed-circuit ventilation of invasive ventilation, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is an open-circuit ventilation where leaks are inherent and, paradoxically, essential to its success. The success of NIV, whether in the acute setting, weaning, or long-term therapy is dependent on all three aspects for its use, appropriate patient selection, suitably fitting interface, and a specifically designed machine. The choice of a ventilator may be crucial for the success of NIV in the acute setting, because intolerance and excessive air leaks are significantly correlated with NIV failure [10].
