Noninvasive ventilation acutely modifies heart rate variability in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
Summary Objective The purpose of present study was to evaluate the acute effects of bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) on heart rate variability (HRV) of stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (COPD). Methods Nineteen males with COPD (69 ± 8 years and with forced expiratory vol...
