Intravenous magnesium sulfate + standard care vs placebo + standard care

Proportion of people requiring non‐invasive ventilation · acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

It is very uncertain whether intravenous magnesium sulfate + standard care changes proportion of people requiring non‐invasive ventilation compared with placebo + standard care (very low certainty).
