Neural respiratory drive predicts clinical deterioration and safe discharge in exacerbations of COPD

RATIONALE: Hospitalised patients with acute exacerbation of COPD may deteriorate despite treatment, with early readmission being common. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether neural respiratory drive, measured using second intercostal space parasternal muscle electromyography (EMG(para)), would identif...
