The significant decrease in tracheal intubation related complications makes it particularly attractive in patients with moderately acute respiratory failure (ARF) who still have some degree of respiratory autonomy. It has also been used to support patients with chronic respiratory failure. However, final outcomes are variable according to the conditions which determined its application. This Consensus was performed in order to review the evidence supporting the use of positive pressure NIV. The patho-physiological background of NIV and the equipment required technology are described. Available evidence clearly suggests benefits of NIV in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and in cardiogenic pulmonary edema (Recommendation A). When considering ARF in the setting of acute respiratory distress syndrome results are uncertain, unless dealing with immunosupressed patients (Recommendation B). Posi...

Three periods in relation to the development of RM could be recognized: from 1964 to 1974 RM was done by pH and blood gases measurements, the measurement of minute ventilation was not routinely performed. Between 1975 and 1985 electronic components were introduced in

This paradoxical finding was attributted to vascular collapse in well ventilated upper alveoli associated with blood flow redistribution to dependent hypoventilated areas with low ventilation-perfusion relationships.

Viral pneumonia was suspected and oxygen therapy, CPAP, water restriction and diuretics were started with good response. She remained febrile and had an abnormal chest X-ray, a diagnosis of miliary tuberculosis was confirmed by transbronchial fibreoptic lung biopsy.
