Resumen
NAVARRO RODRIGUEZ, Zadis. Non-invasive ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2021, vol.50, n.4, e1049. Epub 01-Dic-2021. ISSN 0138-6557.
Introduction:
The use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation has become widespread in the world, with widespread use even in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure.
Objective:
To identify what is known about the use of non-invasive ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome and to analyze its application in this complication in COVID-19.
Development:
Non-invasive mechanical ventilation could appear as one more resource to give respiratory support in patients with COVID-19 infection, however, the scant scientific evidence on its effectiveness in acute respiratory distress syndrome and the risk of contagion by the particle scattering, generates controversy over its use.
Conclusions:
In adults with COVID-19 and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation should be contraindicated, only assessing its use in very specific and justified cases.
