As clarification to the results of the recently presented study “The Impact of Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV) on Health Cost and Outcomes”, the one year mortality rates of patients using non-invasive ventilation were reduced by 12% on an absolute basis and 25% on a relative basis.  Patients who were treated had a one year mortality rate of 35% while the untreated patients had a 47% mortality rate.  The Company is extremely excited about the results of the study (which is currently in peer review for publication) and is optimistic that it will contribute to the expansion of the utilization of NIVH therapy in the 95% of COPD and CRF patients that are currently untreated.
