COPD
Conditions
Brief summary
Negative pressure ventilation (NPV) is a non-invasive ventilation mode which provide better lung expansion. The major complication of NPV is decrease blood pressure and affects the hemodynamics. The effects of NPV on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with pulmonary rehabilitation program remains unknown.
Detailed description
Both of NPV or positive pressure ventilation (PPV) has impact of hemodynamics. NPV with cuirass ventilator increases venous return and leads to ventricular filling and increases cardiac output (CO); In contrast to NPV, the effect of PPV in most situations is a decreased venous return and leads to decreased CO. NPV improving ventilation and work of breathing in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Interventions
Patients who received a negative pressure during inspiratory phase.
