Filter by:This is a Post-hoc analysis based on the database of "A non-interventional, retrospective study on AECOPD treatment status in China". A large nation-wide retrospective non-interventional study has carried out from January to September 2014 in China. The study aimed to observe clinical practice including glucocorticoids treatment in AECOPD in China. The data for 5067 cases were collected. These cases met the following inclusion criteria: more than 40 years old, diagnosed by GOLD 2013 (GOLD: The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease) as COPD at least 3 months before AECOPD based on treating physician's judgment; the patients received hospitalization due to AECOPD since Sep 2013. Demographic information, administration of corticosteroids, medical and surgical history, comorbidities, clinical outcome, laboratory tests and lung function tests were recorded in database. There were 43 sites in the main study. These sites located in 22 provinces in China. A majority of sites (40 sites) were tier 3 hospitals in major cities. The data in study was provided by each site via medical records. In 5091 screening cases, 5067 cases were recruited and included in full analysis set (FAS). All cases in FAS will be included into this post-hoc analysis. Through data mining and analysis, it is to explore the relationship between corticosteroids based treatment regimen and clinical outcome and the optimal treatment regimen for corticosteroids used in inpatients with COPD exacerbations based on our database.
The rationale for this non-interventional study in confirmed moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients aged 40 years and above, is to assess real-life effectiveness and safety of Trimbow® in clinical practice, and to bridge the gap with the existing clinical data.
The aim of this study is to collect capnometric (tidal breathing CO2) data using TidalSense's N-Tidal C Data Collector Device. The data collected will be examined for correlation with currently accepted assessment techniques for COPD (spirometry, vital signs and pulse oximetry) and the patient's clinical condition (stable, worsening, improving). The patient numbers and study duration have been determined by power calculations to provide a statistically significant sample size, based on expected number of exacerbations (mild, moderate and severe) from the patient cohort. The data will also be examined to assess the predictive possibility of a non-invasive self-care personal CO2 monitoring device to identify COPD exacerbations.
Acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) are associated with severe dyspnea and exercise intolerance. Early pulmonary rehabilitation (EPR) may lead to improvements in dyspnea and exercise tolerance, as it does in stable COPD patients.
Purpose: To analyze the effects of Ramadan observance (RO) on pulmonary variables, exercise performance and postural balance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: Twenty COPD patients (age=72.7 ± 4.1 yr, non-smokers, without cardiac or neuromuscular complications) were evaluated. Tests performed one week before Ramadan (C), and during the second (R-2) and the fourth weeks of Ramadan (R-4) included standard spirometry, a quality of life questionnaire (VQ11), a 6-min walking test (6MWT), measurement of maximal voluntary contraction force of the quadriceps (MVC), Timed Get Up and Go (TUG), Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and Unipedal Stance (UST).
This is a 1 year longitudinal study to establish a related index system for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) quality control.Clinical and economic data of COPD patients will be collected and analyzed.
In this follow-up trial, MRI and CT images of the lung will be acquired prospectively in a subcohort of 370 patients, three years after they successfully participated in the first COSYCONET subtrial with CT and MRI ("MR-COPD I", NCT (clinical.Trials.gov identifier) 02629432). The objective is to obtain longitudinal data from a well-characterized collective of COPD patients in order to identify suitable image-based biomarkers to improve the prognosis of disease progression of COPD in comparison to clinical tests
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Fixed Combination of Beclomethasone Dipropionate + Formoterol Fumarate + Glycopyrronium Bromide Administered Via Dry Powder Inhaler in COPD
A prospective, multicenter study including a cross-section validation to define sensitivity and specificity of CAPTURE to identify previously undiagnosed patients with clinically significant Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), and its impact on clinical care across a broad range of primary care settings in a cluster randomized controlled clinical trial.
