Home Non Invasive Ventilation for COPD Patients

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Interventions
Device: Home ventilator
Registration Number
NCT03221101
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Rouen
Brief Summary

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients are more likely to develop acute hypercapnic respiratory failure. In the acute phase, non invasive ventilation has been shown to improve mortality and reduce intubation rate. Few studies are available about long term benefits of home non invasive ventilation in COPD patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure who survived after an acute episode. 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 acute hypercapnic respiratory failure episode treated by non invasive ventilation.
