Modern management of acute respiratory failure aims to relieve dyspnea and anxiety by providing a non-invasive respiratory support. This approach tries to avoid endotracheal intubation, patient self inflicted lung injuries (PSILI) and diaphragmatic dysfunction. The present study aims to evaluate dyspnea, pulmonary regional ventilation and diaphragmatic function in patients with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure by different observations, and to bring risk factor for intubation out.
