Objective To study the curative effect of noninvasive ventilation on the patients of acute serious bronchial asthma complicated with pneumothorax. Methods Forty patients were randomly assigned to receive BiPAP ventilation immediately after thoracic closing drainage, or nasal catheter oxygen inhalation after thoracic closing drainage. Results After 24-hour ventilation, the levels of PO_ 2, SO_ 2, PCO_ 2 and breath rate between two groups were of remarkable difference (P0.05). The level of PO_ 2, SO_ 2, PCO_ 2, and heart rate, respiratory rate of the BiPAP patients were of remarkable difference (P
