Shimoyama et al. (2021) conducted a cross-sectional in Chronic respiratory failure (n=51). Acute exacerbation vs. No acute exacerbation was evaluated on Self-Care Agency Questionnaire (SCAQ) total score (p=<0.01). In patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving home NPPV, those with a history of acute exacerbations had significantly lower self-care agency scores compared to those without exacerbations (median 82.5 vs 98.0, p<0.01).
