Health Coaching in Severe COPD After a Hospitalization: A Qualitative Analysis of a Large Randomized Study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:To maximize the likelihood of successful long-term mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients with neuromuscular diseases, ventilator characteristics and settings must be chosen carefully, taking into account both medical requisites and the patient's preference and comfort. OBJECTIVES:To evaluate patients' kno...
