Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the noninvasive ventilation is more effective in the treatment of severe comunity acquired pneumonia in comparison with the conventional mechanical ventilation with orotracheal intubation.
