The short- and long-term physiological, functional and economic benefits of NIPPV in patients with chronic chest wall and stable neuromuscular disease have been confirmed and its advantages over non-invasive negative pressure ventilation outlined. Current research should help provide guidelines for patient selection and the most appropriate use of NIPPV in progressive neuromuscular disorders.
