This article discusses the basics of nNIV and highlighted areas of emerging research and new challenges in the field, the use of nNIV in patients with heart failure that have sleep-disordered breathing, the efficacy of different modes of bilevel nNIV in patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome, and the use of nNIV in patients with neuromuscular disorders.</style></abstract><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></number><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></volume></record></records></xml>
