Change in Breathing Pattern on Non-invasive Ventilation of COPD Patients Under Home Mechanical Ventilation

Completed
Conditions
COPD Exacerbation
Copd
Registration Number
NCT03018470
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Rouen
Brief Summary

Acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) worsen prognosis and quality of life of COPD patients. Telemonitoring could be a useful tool for early identification of AECOPD. Parameters that have to be monitored are not well defined.

Patients with severe COPD may use home non-invasive ventilation (NIV). NIV have built-in software which are recording the breathing pattern of patients when used. The aim of this study is to identify ventilation parameters that are modified at the early stage of an AECOPD.
