Noninvasive  mechanical ventilation has managed to establish itself as the treatment  option for a wide variety of causes of acute and chronic respiratory  failure in different settings in hospital and home noninvasive  mechanical ventilation. In the last decades, we have discovered its  positive effects on gas exchange and symptoms such as dyspnea control,  widely contrasted against endotracheal intubation. However, although  this wide range of beneficial effects have been described,  pathophysiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of noninvasive  mechanical complications could not be forgotten for a correct  application as they clearly affect patient outcome and mortality. Nowadays, there is a scarce number of publications analyzing noninvasive  mechanical ventilation complications and this book is the first  dedicated to its analysis. This book brings together a broad  multidisciplinary vision of common and unusual complications, thus it  serves as the original and essential scientific published reference on  noninvasive mechanical ventilation complications. The present book has been structured to offer through its sections and  chapters an exhaustive and in-depth analysis of noninvasive mechanical  ventilation complications, mechanisms, direct or indirect factors  determinants, key recommendations for the early diagnosis and treatment  for most frequent applications from multidisciplinary perspective.  Finally, we analyze noninvasive mechanical ventilation complications and  how they impact in short- and long-term complications and mortality.  The book concludes analyzing evidence in diagnosis, prevention and  treatment. We believe that the readers of this book will find in it an essential  reference for a correct application of noninvasive mechanical  ventilation, and thus be able to improve results and prognosis. Only the  precise knowledge of complications of noninvasive mechanical  ventilation will allow us to achieve a proper application to success.
