Brief Summary

This study will look at outcomes between Endobronchial Coil Treatment and Control groups in patients with severe heterogeneous and or homogeneous emphysema.

Detailed Description

This will be a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled study comparing outcomes between the Endobronchial Coil and Control Groups. Subjects will be block randomized in a Treatment to Control ...
