The use of this method of ventilation of the lungs made it possible to avoid undesirable consequences arising from the transfer of the patient to artificial ventilation of the lungs and to transport him safely to a specialized medical institution in order to continue treatment. The described method of preparing a patient with respiratory failure before aviation transportation has shown its effectiveness during the flight and may be recommended for use by airmobile crews when carrying out long-distance evacuation Keywords: community-acquired pneumonia, aviation evacuation, non-invasive ventilation, functional transportability For citation Shchyogolev A.V., Vorobyov V.S., Shustrov V.V., Lakhin R.Y.
