Summary

This study looks at whether an ultrasound measurement of the diaphragm can help predict which patients hospitalized with a COPD flare-up will get worse and need breathing support or die. About 186 adults with severe COPD will have an extra ultrasound during their hospital stay. The goal is to see if this test can spot high-risk patients early, so doctors can act faster.
