INTRODUCTION
VENTILATOR TYPES
The two main categories of ventilators include:
Noninvasive ventilators
These devices provide breathing support through an external
interface, such as a mask or nasal prongs.
Invasive ventilators
Patients on long-term ventilation may require ventilation
through an endotracheal tube inserted through the mouth or
nose, or through a tracheostomy tube inserted into an incision
in the in the neck.
