Abstract
Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure is defined as one of the most aggravating pathological clinical conditions, regarding patients who suffer from severe pulmonary diseases, accompanied with a significant burden of persistent and stressful clinical symptomatology. One of the most challenging tasks is the achievement of maximum respiratory support, using noninvasive methods and modes, as long as the patient’s general condition permits so. The benefits of NIV treatment with the aim to avoid endotracheal intubation and following mechanical ventilation are significantly important for the overall outcome. The physician must maintain perception, though, in order to proceed to any necessary further invasive techniques, if the conditions require so.
