    Unmet need

    People with respiratory insufficiency caused by SCIs need ventilatory support. While some people will remain ventilated after the treatment, many people with ventilator dependence may benefit from PNP. It offers some ventilator-free time, so reducing the risk of complications associated with MV and potentially improving quality of life.
