Influence of noninvasive ventilation by BiPAP on exercise tolerance and respiratory muscle strength in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (COPD)

Influence of noninvasive ventilation by BiPAP on exercise tolerance and respiratory muscle strength in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (COPD)

This study aimed to assess the effect of BiPAP, by nasal mask, on exercise tolerance and respiratory muscle strength in patients with a clinical and spirometric diagnosis of moderate/severe COPD (FEV1 < 60% of predicted). Ten patients of 59.4+/-8.9 years old, with FEV1/FVC
