Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (NIV) has been increasingly used in the treatment of acute respiratory failure. Notwithstanding failure rates still remains high, ranging from 5% to 60%. The onset of delirium, agitation, pain and dyspnea may contribute to reduce the success rate of non invasive ventilation treatment. The aim of this study is to assess the incidence and impact of delirium, agitation, pain and dyspnea on clinical outcomes in a population of patient admitted to Respiratory Intensive Care Unit undergoing Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation for Acute Respiratory Failure.
