HUMIDITY TO OPTIMIZE PATIENT TOLERANCE The use of humidification with noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is vital for maintaining the natural balance of heat and moisture in the airways.2 This is important as the high pressure and flow rates of gas used with NIV can cause the patient’s already compromised respiratory system to deteriorate further.3 By heating and humidifying the gas flow, airway drying is minimized and secretion clearance is improved. This reduces airway resistance and leads to improved comfort and increased tolerance to NIV, making NIV more effective.3,4 WHY IS HUMIDIFICATION...
