Oxygen therapy (OT) is the most widely used supportive regime in patients with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (ARF) due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The aim of this study was to identify the effect of noninvasive ventilation support on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and risk factors for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV).
