This dissertation by Johan Berkius examines the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in intensive care units (ICUs) in Sweden, focusing on the use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and its long-term outcomes. It explores the survival rates and health-related quality of life (HRQL) of COPD patients admitted to ICUs, analyzes the decision-making process between using invasive or non-invasive ventilation, and evaluates the outcomes based on the ventilation mode used. The study finds that although the short- and long-term mortality rates are high among these patients, NIV is preferable due to its benefits in both short- and long-term survival, without increasing mortality risk even if NIV fails and invasive ventilation is required. The research aims to provide insight into the treatment and recovery of COPD patients, highlighting the importance of NIV as a first-line treatment option. It is intended for medical professionals and researchers interested in the management of COPD in critical care settings.

John Galsworthy first published in 1897 with a collection of short stories entitled "The Four Winds". For the next 7 years he published these and all works under his pen name John Sinjohn. It was only upon the death of his father and the publication of "The Island Pharisees" in 1904 that he published as John Galsworthy. His first play was The Silver Box, an immediate success when it debuted in 1906 and was followed by "The Man of Property" later that same year and was the first in the Forsyte trilogy. Whilst today he is far more well know as a Nobel Prize winning novelist then he was considered a playwright dealing with social issues and the class system. We publish here 'Justice' a great example of both his writing and his demonstration of how the class system worked at the time. He was appointed to the Order of Merit in 1929, after earlier turning down a knighthood, and awarded the Nobel Prize in 1932 though he was too ill to attend. John Galsworthy died from a brain tumour at his London home, Grove Lodge, Hampstead on January 31st 1933. In accordance with his will he was cremated at Woking with his ashes then being scattered over the South Downs from an aeroplane.
