Abstract
The increasing amount of clinical and scientific data support- ing the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation as a “first line treatment” for acute respiratory failure7 has increased the interest in HDUs and NRCUs. We performed a survey of HDRUs in Europe. In Europe the number of respiratory units is still small, but it is rapidly increasing with major differences between countries.File in questo prodotto:
