Viral infections are the main cause of acute respiratory failure in infants, which can progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), with high morbidity and mortality, so it is essential to imple ment strategies that prevent this progression. Recently, it has been proposed that increased work of breathing would not only be a warning symptom during the evolution of acute respiratory failure, but also a mechanism for the progression of injury, both lungs and diaphragm, coining the concept of patient self-inflicted lung injury. Since the first reports of ARDS, the usefulness of the use of con tinuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been raised, a non-invasive respiratory support therapy with wide access and low cost, capable of improving oxygenation and work of breathing.
