Introduction Helmet noninvasive support may provide advantages over other noninvasive
oxygenation strategies in the management of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. In this …

Rationale: The respective effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and pressure
support delivered through the helmet interface in patients with hypoxemia need to be better …

Optimal initial non-invasive management of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), of
both coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and non-COVID-19 etiologies, has been the …

Background The effects of awake prone position on the breathing pattern of hypoxemic
patients need to be better understood. We conducted a crossover trial to assess the …

Noninvasive support techniques can improve hypoxemia in respiratory failure and acute
respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and may help avoid endotracheal intubation …

Introduction Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) represents an effective strategy for managing
acute respiratory failure. Facemask NIV is strongly recommended in acute exacerbation of …

Background The choice of correct interface for the right patient is crucial for the success of
non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy. Helmet CPAP is a type of interface used to deliver …

Background In the last decades, the use of the helmet interface to deliver noninvasive
respiratory support has steadily increased. When delivering oxygen therapy, conditioning of …

Recently, there has been growing interest in knowing the best hygrometry level during high-
flow nasal oxygen and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and its potential influence on the …

Initially proposed in the late 1980s as a direct consequence of the development of pressure-
support on mechanical ventilators, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has received increasing …
