What is Non-Invasive What is Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV)Ventilation (NIV)
‘‘Delivery of ventilatory support Delivery of ventilatory support without the need for an invasive without the need for an invasive artificial airway’artificial airway’
Some Some Physiology…….zzzzzzz!Physiology…….zzzzzzz!
VentilationVentilation- process by which O2 and CO2 are - process by which O2 and CO2 are transported to and from the lungstransported to and from the lungs
Venous blood Venous blood - lower pO2 higher pCO2 than - lower pO2 higher pCO2 than inspired gasinspired gas- partial pressure gradient driving - partial pressure gradient driving O2 in and CO2 outO2 in and CO2 out
Ventilation of lungs with inspired gases Ventilation of lungs with inspired gases leads to mixing with alveolar gasleads to mixing with alveolar gas
If no ventilation at all, no If no ventilation at all, no replenishment of O2 and no removal of replenishment of O2 and no removal of CO2CO2
Arterial pO2 falls and pCO2 rises Arterial pO2 falls and pCO2 rises towards that of venoustowards that of venous
If ventilation greater than needed, If ventilation greater than needed, alveolar gas closer to inspired gasalveolar gas closer to inspired gas
TerminologyTerminology
Tidal Volume (VT) – amount of gas Tidal Volume (VT) – amount of gas expired per breath (~ 500ml at rest)expired per breath (~ 500ml at rest)
Minute Volume – amount of expired gas Minute Volume – amount of expired gas per minuteper minute
Alveolar Ventilation – amount of gas Alveolar Ventilation – amount of gas reaching functional alveolireaching functional alveoli
Work of Breathing – usually ~5% of Work of Breathing – usually ~5% of total body work – most used to total body work – most used to overcome lung and chest wall stiffness overcome lung and chest wall stiffness during inspirationduring inspiration
PEEPPEEP Pressure Support (cmH2O) – Pressure Support (cmH2O) –
positive pressure applied to airway positive pressure applied to airway to support patients own breathto support patients own breath
Opening Pressure – pressure Opening Pressure – pressure required to open collapsed alveolirequired to open collapsed alveoli
Types of NIVTypes of NIV
Negative-Pressure Ventilation (Iron Negative-Pressure Ventilation (Iron Lung)Lung)
Continuous Positive Airway Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) (Not really NIV!)Pressure (CPAP) (Not really NIV!)
Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP)(BiPAP)
Negative-Pressure Negative-Pressure VentilationVentilation

Early 1900s – iron lungs Early 1900s – iron lungs used for polio epidemicsused for polio epidemics
This continued This continued throughout the 20throughout the 20thth century until 1960s century until 1960s when invasive when invasive ventilation became ventilation became availableavailable
