Randomized Controlled Trial[Effects of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation on respiratory muscle fatigue in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a randomized controlled trial].
To study the effects of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on respiratory muscle fatigue in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ⋯ Respiratory muscle fatigue was evident in patients with acute exacerbations of COPD. NPPV led to a more rapid improvement in gas exchange and respiratory muscle fatigue.
