Summary

The study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the modified Bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) A40 with Vector Algorithm to treat Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients with excessive carbon dioxide in their bloodstream (hypercapnia) and expiratory flow limitation (EFL), a constriction of the lower airways. The study will include current users of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as well as those who are not currently using an NIV device.

Interventions

DEVICE

Modified BiPAP A40 with Vector Algorithm (Vector)

The Modified BiPAP A40 with Vector Algorithm (Vector) is intended to provide non-invasive ventilatory support to treat patients weighing over 10 kg (22 lbs) with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) or Respiratory Insufficiency. It is intended to be used within the home, institutional/ hospital, and diagnostic laboratory environments. This device is not intended for life support. The BiPAP A40 EFL screening and therapy is intended for patients weighing over 30 kg (66 lbs) with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), or Respiratory Insufficiency with primary cause being Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) to screen for the presence, and abolishment of Expiratory Flow Limitation (EFL).
