Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma are common respiratory diseases in which people experience long-term inflammation of the lungs. Exacerbations, or prolonged worsening of symptoms, of asthma and COPD are often life-threatening and can lead to frequent need for hospitalization. Even with the proper use of bronchodilators, corticosteroids, and other currently available medications, clinical responses among people with COPD and asthma are variable. There remains a significant unmet clinical need for new therapeutic approaches and insights, including the identification of biomarkers to accurately assess the presence of airway infection and intensity of airway inflammation. This study will investigate potential natural biological causes and new biomarkers for increased susceptibility to persistent airway infection in asthma and COPD.
The purpose of this study to determine the safety and effectiveness of a mechanical device to remove carbon dioxide from the blood of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)when they are hospitalized in the intensive care unit for exacerbation of their condition.
This is a study to investigate the reliability, ruggedness and safety of the top mounted actuation indicator (TMAI) when used with Levalbuterol HFA MDI.
