Noninvasive Ventilation and Oxygenation Strategies

open access: yesSurgical Clinics of North America, 2022
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) provides respiratory support without the use of invasive ventilation with techniques that do not bypass the upper airway. NIV is particularly attractive given its associated reduced risk of complications associated with intubation.
