Abstract

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive respiratory disorder with persistent airflow limitation. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is used to manage acute exacerbations and improve chronic respiratory function in COPD patients.


Objective: To assess the efficacy of NIV in COPD patients, focusing on clinical outcomes, symptom management, and reductions in hospital admissions, morbidity, and mortality.


Methodology: A systematic literature review was conducted across PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases. Key outcome measures included blood gas improvement, quality of life, and survival rates.


Results: NIV significantly improved respiratory parameters, reduced hospital admissions, and mortality, and enhanced quality of life.


Conclusion: NIV is a critical therapeutic tool in COPD management, offering notable clinical benefits, though more research is needed for optimizing protocols across different COPD subgroups.
