Patients with end-organ failure.
What this study is about
In the sponsor’s own words, from the registry.
Patients with Bronchiectasis experience exacerbations with hypercapnic respiratory failure associated with an increased respiratory workload that may require intensive care unit (ICU) admission due to the inability of the respiratory muscles to compensate for increased demand. These exacerbations are frequently treated with noninvasive ventilation (NIV).
