Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The main purpose of the present study is to verify whether, as compared with conventional-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, high-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation may more effective in correcting hypercapnia, hence reducing the need for intubation and improving survival in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: High-intensity NPPV

The patients will receive high-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

Device: High-intensity NPPV
The patients will receive noninvasive positive pressure ventilation using S/T mode. The inspiratory positive airway pressure will be initially set at 10 cmH2O, and will be continuously adjusted by increments/decrements of 1-2 cmH2O, according to subjects' tolerance (up to 30 cmH2O), to obtain a VT of 15 mL/kg of predicted body weight, and to achieve normocapnia as possible as it can.

Active Comparator: Conventional-intensity NPPV

The patients will receive conventional-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

Device: Conventional-intensity NPPV
The patients will receive noninvasive positive pressure ventilation using S/T mode. The inspiratory positive airway pressure will be initially set at 10 cmH2O, and will be continuously adjusted by increments/decrements of 1-2 cmH2O, according to subjects' tolerance (up to 20 cmH2O), to obtain a VT of 10 mL/kg of predicted body weight.
