This study in patients suffering of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD) aims to investigate whether telemonitoring of their non invasive ventilation (NIV) device together with targeted, tailored intervention in case of increasing symptoms or ventilation abnormalities improves the therapy adherence and effectiveness and can reduce the need for hospitalizations.
54 NIV naive COPD patients will be randomized to either telemonitoring care with a data-based intervention scheme or standard care according to the guideline of the German Society of Pneumology.
Primary objective:
Adherence to ventilation in the intervention group versus control group.
Secondary objective:
Comparisons between the control and intervention groups, over time and against each other, in terms of:
