AB - Non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) is a therapeutic procedure that aims to supplement or improve
ventilatory function. In recent decades, its benefit and multiple indications, have been demonstrated in the
treatment of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and its acute complications [1]. However, the use of
this therapy, in patients with chronic heart failure is not exempt from risks and complications, so it must be
carefully individualized and requires close monitoring when ischaemic heart disease and/or arterial
hypotension also coexist. Special mention requires the revision of the indication of servo ventilation in
patients with severe chronic heart failure, due to its possible adverse effects.
