| Abstract | About 65 million people have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and COPD is estimated to be the third cause of death worldwide by 2030 [1]. Sometimes patients with COPD experience an exacerbation. These patients are vulnerable because they experience a life-threatening situation and are wholly dependent on health-care interventions to relieve breathlessness [2-5]. Exacerbation of COPD is treated worldwide with non-invasive ventilation (NIV) [6,7]. |
