Abstract: Background The optimal noninvasive application of external positive end-expiratory pressure (EPAP) to abolish tidal-breathing expiratory flow limitation (EFLT) and minimise intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEPi) is challenging in COPD patients. We investigated whether auto-titrating EPAP,… read more here.
