Detailed Description
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by persistent airflow limitation with chronic inflammation of the respiratory system. Symptoms of COPD may contribute to activity restriction, deconditioning and exercise intolerance. Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) has been shown to improve exercise intolerance and health-related quality of life in patients with severe COPD. Helmet ventilation (HV) is a new option for NIPPV to alternative to nasal or face mask. A study which published on JAMA demonstrated the feasibility and benefits of HV. The aim of this study is to investigate the use helmet ventilation (HV) in walking test and analysis of effect patients with COPD.
Interventions
- Device: Helmet vetilation
- We will apply non-invasive positive pressure ventilation via a helmet as interface
Arms, Groups and Cohorts
- Experimental: HV
- 6MWT with helmet ventilation
- No Intervention: Control
- 6MWT alone according to ATS guideline
Clinical Trial Outcome Measures
Primary Measures
- 6WMD
- Time Frame: 2 days
- Walking distance of six minute walking test
Secondary Measures
- Heart rate
- Time Frame: 2 days
- Heart rate of six minute walking test
- Respiratory rate
- Time Frame: 2 days
- Respiratory rate of six minute walking test
- modified Borg dyspnea scale
