Filter by:The overall goal of this project is to develop and to preliminarily validate a novel intervention to be delivered in the high school setting that integrates two evidence-based, school-based interventions for urban adolescents with proven efficacy: (1) Asthma Self-Management for Adolescents (ASMA), an intervention for adolescents with uncontrolled asthma and (2) the Sleep-Smart Program (Sleep-Smart), which focuses on sleep hygiene and behaviors in urban adolescents. The aim for Phase I is to develop and integrate school-based interventions to improve asthma self-management and sleep hygiene in urban high school students via interviews. The aims for Phase II are: (1) to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention procedures; and (2) to assess the preliminary evidence of the effects of the intervention on improving sleep quality in urban high school students with persistent asthma over a 2-month follow-up period. This record is for Phase I only.
The purpose of this study is to compare Budesonide/formoterol Easyhaler test products with the marketed product Symbicort Turbuhaler in terms of the drug absorbed into the bloodstream.
This study is a prospective observational multicentre cohort study of asthma patients in Eastern Africa whose objectives will be; The primary objective of this project is to identify and characterize severe asthma in Eastern Africa in order to understand its demographic, clinical, physiologic, pathologic, genomic and immunologic determinants. Secondary objective(s) are; Compare the annual healthcare utilisation (HCU) (emergency room visits, hospitalization including admission to critical care units and unscheduled outpatient clinic or office visits), exacerbation, quality of life and mortality rates of severe and not- severe asthma patients Determine the factors associated with the asthma HCU events, quality of life, exacerbations and mortality The study will enroll 1676 patients aged between 12 and 70 years and follow up each patient for up to one year.
To determine if an asthma navigator is helpful in improving communication between care providers and improving patient adherence to asthma medications after an asthma exacerbation.
The purpose of this study is to assess peak FEV1 of two doses of QVM149 compared to a fixed-dose combination of salmeterol/fluticasone (50/500μg b.i.d.) and to characterize the respective 24 hour bronchodilator effect profiles in patients with asthma. Data from this study will complement lung function data obtained in the pivotal QVM149 phase 3 program by assessing the bronchodilatory effect of QVM149 at multiple time-points over an entire dosing interval of 24 hours.
This study aims to assess the feasibility of using an intervention for environmental smoke exposure in children that uses cotinine testing results with written materials and telephone counseling for a potential future study of parents whose children are admitted with respiratory illnesses to The Barbara Bush Children's Hospital in Portland, Maine.
Pharmacokinetic study comparing Salmeterol/fluticasone Easyhaler products and Seretide Diskus 50/500 µg/inhalation; a randomised, open, single centre, single dose, crossover study in healthy subjects
To ascertain whether home-based nocturnal TLA usage over a 12 month period can reduce exacerbations and improve asthma control and quality of life as compared to placebo, whilst being cost-effective and acceptable to adults with poorly-controlled, severe allergic asthma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of different single and repeat doses of PIN201104 in healthy volunteers and in patients with asthma.
This Pilot study evaluates the use of a new device called Inflammacheck and whether it can consistently measure hydrogen peroxide levels in exhaled breath condensate. It will also assess whether exhaled breath condensate hydrogen peroxide levels as measured by Inflammacheck can differentiate people with asthma and COPD from healthy individuals.
