Summary

This study tests whether using a non-invasive ventilator (NIV) at home is better than a CPAP machine for people who have both COPD and obstructive sleep apnea and recently survived a severe breathing crisis. About 386 adults will use one of the two machines nightly for a year, and researchers will track who has fewer severe COPD flare-ups or dies. The goal is to find out which device works best to prevent future emergencies and improve long-term outcomes.
