Norhaya MR, Wazi RA, Azhar AA Domiciliary non-invasive ventilatory devices--a general hospital experience. [Journal Article] Med J Malaysia 2009 Mar; 64(1):77-9.
Treatment for chronic respiratory failure has advanced since the introduction of domiciliary non-invasive ventilatory devices. This has given a new light of hope for patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to various causes.

Four patients received bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) and one patient received continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).
