Base Excess, a Marker of Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure and Predictor of Survival in Copd
WINNING ABSTRACT: We studied the role of base excess (BE) as marker of chronic hypercapnia and survival in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (CHRF). Moreover, it was investigated whether the effects of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on CHRF were reflected in BE and survival. In 240 (160 without exacerbation)...
متن کاملPredictors of survival in COPD patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure receiving noninvasive home ventilation.

Knowledge of prognostic parameters under these conditions is limited but may be clinically helpful and highlight the role of noninvasive ventilation. METHODS In 188 patients with COPD (mean +/- SD FEV1, 31.0 +/- 9.6% of predicted; P...
