Summary

Aim of this prospective randomized trial is to compare non invasive ventilation (NIV) with pressure control (BiPAP-ST) to volume assured pressure support (iVAPS) with regards to sleep quality and alveolar ventilation in patients with routine NIV initiation after COPD exacerbation.

20 patients with COPD and chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure will spent two nights on NIV, one with spontaneous timed pressure controlled bilevel ventilation (BiPAP-ST) and one with the advanced mode of intelligent volume assured pressure support (iVAPS). Patients will spend the treatment nights in randomized order under polysomnographic surveillance, including transcutaneous PCO2 measurement. Besides the number of arousals and PCO2 values over night the sleep quality will be judged with regards to especially adjusted respiratory event criteria like unintentional leaks, patient ventilator asynchrony, and decrease of ventilatory drive.
