AB Emergent  technologies  have  provided  a  wide  variety  of  noninvasive  ventilation  (NIV)  devices  and  modes  to  deliver  treatment  for  respiratory  failure  through  a  mask  or  tracheotomy,  both  in  the  acute  care  setting  and  at  home.  An  in-depth  understanding  of  NIV  indications,  modes,  and  settings  is  crucial  to  guarantee  delivery  of  effective  therapy.  However,  knowledge  gaps  exist  in  most  practitioners  regarding  matching  advanced  NIV  modes  and  settings  to  a  patient’s  unique  respiratory  failure  pathophysiology.  In  this  chapter  we  review  the  principles  of  NIV  devices  and  modes,  assess  indications  for  its  use  (e.g.,  neuromuscular  and  chest  wall  disease,  obstructive  airway  diseases,  obesity-related  respiratory  failure),  and  review  the  most  recent  published  literature,  including  guidelines  in  the  application  (and  adjustment)  of  these  devices  during  hospitalization  and  at  home.  For  additional  information,  the  reader  is  referred  to  Chapters  98,  99,  and  142,  in  which  the  use  of  noninvasive  ventilation  in  management  of  sleep-disordered  breathing  and  the  pathogenesis  of  hypoventilatory  disorders  are  discussed.
