DEVICE

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

CPAP is an FDA approved therapy machine for patients diagnosed with OSA. CPAP provides positive air pressure to the patients throat to ensure the patients airway stays open during sleep. CPAP is the gold standard treatment for OSA, but there is limited research that demonstrates whether CPAP can improve clinical outcomes in patients with COPD. Therefore, our investigators want to initiate CPAP therapy in patients hospitalized for COPD to investigate whether there is an improvement in cardiac function and clinical outcomes (i.e. mortality).
