Background : Noninvasive ventilator (NIV) is a mechanical ventilation support without endotracheal intubation. The use of noninvasive ventilator has increased recently as it has more beneficial effects compared to the invasive one. The aim of this study is to describe the use of noninvasive ventilator in PICU of Dr. Moewardi General Hospital, Surakarta

The use of NIV in 2016, 2017 and recently (up to May 2018) were 4, 14, and 7 respectively. The most common type of respiratory failure is respiratory failure type 2 (72%) and type 1 (38%). The length of NIV use was between 1 and 5 days (mean 3 days). The most common interface was oronasal mask (52%) followed by nasopharyngeal tube (48%).
