Filter by:Despite its importance, there are few studies that implement the use of new technologies in the approach to patients with asthma and allergy. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telematic educational intervention in patients with allergies and / or asthma
This study will recruit patients who are being prescribed Mepolizumab as part of their standard clinical care for the treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma. Over the course of their treatment, research data (questionnaires) and research samples (blood, breath and urine) will be collected in parallel to standard clinical measurements. The data and samples will be investigated to help better understand how Mepolizumab works, why it doesn't work in certain patients and why it works very well in others. This will help prescribers better identify patients that will benefit from Mepolizumab.
This is the first-in-human phase 1 trial of TQC2731 injection in healthy subjects and in patients with severe asthma to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics and immunogenicity.
(i) To validate the inversed occlusion technique by comparing the results of resistance obtained on the relaxed expiratory occlusion monitor (REOM) with the resistance obtained with respiratory oscillometry (OSC) measurements on the tremoflo® C-100 and (ii) explore (within-test and day-to-day) repeatability and responsiveness to change of this technique when used as home monitoring device in children with asthma.
This is a retrospective observational study drawing on data from the Brigham and Women's Home Hospital database. Sociodemographic and clinic data from a training cohort were used to train a machine learning algorithm to predict the likelihood of 30-day readmission throughout a patient's admission. This algorithm was then validated in a validation cohort.
Human speech is as unique as a fingerprint and analysing speech had advanced so much that speech can now be used instead of PIN numbers in banking. The investigators want to find out whether changes in everyday speech can signal the worsening of asthma. The investigators are planning to collect voice samples from people as their asthma gets better and worse in order to analyse the changes in voice quality - if any. The participants donating the voice samples will remain anonymous and the voice files will be transferred securely to our analytic system.
This is a mechanistic study. Having established safety with the Solo® nebulizer and the ability to predict allergen PD20 using the methacholine PD20 and STE, the current study will assess the use of the Solo® vibrating mesh nebulizer on development of allergen-induced endpoints during the late phase response.
This will be a two-year prospective study to characterize the nature of the remaining asthma exacerbations in patients treated with mepolizumab. Participants will be assessed every six months from pre- until two years of treatment in addition to whenever they experience an exacerbation of asthma during the study period. During these visits, various clinical, physiological and inflammatory outcomes will be assessed.
To investigate the effectiveness of addition of recording video of the patient performing inhaler techniques using mobile phone for discussion with the patient, to standard care inhaler education compared to standard care inhaler education alone, in improving inhaler technique of asthma patients.
Introduction : . In Oman the prevalence of asthma was estimated to be 7.3% of adults and 12.7% of children . Magnesium sulphate is the second line treatment, many studies had shown that it has beneficial effect in treating acute asthma in children ; it reduces the hospital stay and the rate of admission as well as the ventilation rate . Aim : To compare single dose Magnesium sulphate that is typically given in the emergency department verses two doses of magnesium sulphate in treating acute moderate-severe asthma exacerbation in paediatric age group Research hypothesis : Children who are treated with two doses MgSO4 are more likely to have improvement in their PRAM score and are less likely to be admitted to the ward, HD or ICU Primary outcome : Improvement in PRAM (Paediatric respiratory assessment measure) score of acute asthma exacerbation Secondary outcome : Reduce admission rate to general ward, PICU and HD . Demonstrate the safety profile of double dose of magnesium sulphate. Study Design : prospective blinded randomized trial Study population : children age 3-13 years who presented to Royal hospital paediatric emergency with moderate-severe acute asthma Intervention : two doses magnesium sulphate Comparison : Placebo Outcome : Improvement in PRAM score
