Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular events, which can be linked to endothelial dysfunction.

Twenty-one AECOPD patients were assessed in a hospital ward setting from 24 to 48h after admission. NIV was applied using a ventilator with bilevel pressure support. Before and after NIV protocol, patients were e
