Brief summary

This is an open-label single-center 6-month prospective clinical trial predicting exacerbation of COPD with wireless telemonitoring of respiratory rate, heart rate and sleep in patients admitted to the pulmonary ward of the Turku University Hospital due to acute exacerbation of COPD.

Detailed description

A bed sensor based on ballistocardiogram (BCG) will be used to wireless telemonitoring of respiratory rate, heart rate and sleep for six months after an acute exacerbation of COPD.
