Pulmonary Function-NIV. Cardiac, Thoracic, and Abdominal Surgery
2021
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) increase hospital length of stay, morbidity, and mortality in surgical patients. Perioperative noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may reduce the incidence of PPCs and should be considered, in a selected population, as a prophylactic and therapeutic tool to improve gas exchange. NIV demonstrated to be a better treatment than invasive ventilation in patients developing acute postoperative respiratory failure.
