Summary
This study tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (a breathing machine) earlier than usual can help people with ALS. About 48 adults recently diagnosed with ALS will either start breathing support early or receive standard care. The goal is to see if early use improves quality of life and survival, and to plan a larger future study.
