Acute Respiratory Failure
Conditions
Keywords
Non invasive ventilation, Esophageal pressure, Transpulmonary pressure
Brief summary
This study aims at assessing the correlation between trans esophageal pressure and related respiratory mechanics (including, among others, nasal pressure-Pnose) and non-invasive respiratory support failure in patients with acute hypoxic respiratory failure of different etiology (including COVID-19).
