Home Non-invasive Ventilation for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Interventions
Device: Non Invasive Ventilation
Registration Number
NCT01526642
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Rouen
Brief Summary

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure are more likely to develop exacerbations. Non-invasive ventilation has been proposed to treat acute respiratory failure but little information is available about the benefits of home non-invasive ventilation in COPD patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure surviving an acute hypercapnic respiratory failure. The purpose of this study is to determine whether home non-invasive ventilation can reduce recurrent acute hypercapnic respiratory failure in COPD patients who survived an episode of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) treated by Non-invasive ventilation (NIV).
