The 11 pages that link to Noninvasive ventilation, each with the reason it gives.

• Pulmonary edemaRelated: Positive airway pressure can improve oxygenation and reduce respiratory effort in selected cases.

• Airway managementRelated: It supports selected patients without placing an invasive airway.

• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosisRelated: It can support ventilation when ALS weakens respiratory muscles.

• Duchenne muscular dystrophyRelated: It can assist breathing when respiratory muscles become too weak, especially during sleep.

• Respiratory failureRelated: It can improve ventilation and oxygenation without endotracheal intubation.

• Spinal muscular atrophyRelated: Respiratory muscle weakness can make assisted ventilation necessary.

• Congenital myopathyRelated: It can support sleep or daytime breathing when respiratory muscles are weak.

• Central hypoventilation syndromeRelated: It can support ventilation during sleep without a tracheostomy in suitable cases.
