High-frequency jet ventilation by mask (HFJV-M) is another form of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) and a new approach to improving patient–ventilator synchronization during NIV. This method uses a supraphysiological frequency of 120 breaths/min, which does not interfere with the patient’s spontaneous breathing. Lung receptors are not able to respond because they are not stimulated by this frequency. HFJV-M does not provoke cough, nor does the patient fight the ventilator.
