Filter by:Aim: To evaluate the use of AeviceMD Monitoring System (AeviceMD) asthma in reducing acute exacerbation. Methodology: Using a randomized controlled trial design, this project aims evaluate the effectiveness of AeviceMD in improving patients' outcomes in terms of reducing exacerbation, healthcare utilization, improving quality of life, self-efficacy, and cost effectiveness. Paediatric patients above age 7 and adults will be recruited. The data follow-up period is 3 months. It will also evaluate the usability of the device from both patients' and clinicians' perspective. 180 patients (124 adults, 56 pediatrics) and 120 clinicians will be recruited. Importance of study: This study will evaluate if the AeviceMD can help improve disease management and reduce recurrence of asthma exacerbation. Potential benefits and risk: AeviceMD allows for remote monitoring and tracking of patients' lung sounds, which could be used by patients to monitor their lung condition and prevent an episode of exacerbation or worsening exacerbations culminating in an admission which who further utilize already limited healthcare resources. An exacerbation is an episode of severe shortness of breath, cough, and chest tightening which warrants a visit to a healthcare institution. Through self-monitoring, patients can be empowered to self-manage their asthma, with aid of the asthma action plan which is given to all patients with asthma. AeviceMD can also help provide clinicians with patients' objective lung data. In the primary care setting, care is also fragmented as patients are often followed-up by a different doctor or healthcare providers. Clinicians have no objective data to track patients, and is dependent on patients' self-report and possible recall bias. There is no expected risk with the use of the device.
To estimate parameters related to clinical outcomes in a real-world seeting, including investigator reported PFS and OS.
Respiratory diseases are associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Proper diagnosis and risk assessment of these conditions are essential for optimal management. Clinicians use three particularly useful tools to identify these conditions when assessing the patient's status: the stethoscope, the pulse oximeter, and the thermometer. The Pneumoscope is an all-in-one device including a digital stethoscope, a pulse oximeter, and a thermometer. This study aims to assess the performance and safety of the Pneumoscope in recording respiratory sounds, body temperature, non-invasive blood oxygen saturation levels and heart rate in children and adults.
The purpose of this study is to define the standard use of TCM treatment regimen as the TCM cohort group and the non-TCM cohort group of those who use conventional Western medicine treatment without the standard TCM treatment regimen through a multi-center, large-sample prospective cohort study design. To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of TCM treatment regimens in the treatment of bronchial asthma, and to provide high-quality evidence for the promotion and application of TCM syndrome differentiation treatment in bronchial asthma.
The United Kingdom has a high prevalence of asthma (over 12%) and some of the worst health outcomes in Europe. The management of respiratory disease and associated patient outcomes has long been an area of focus and improvement for the National Health Service. With the advancement of digital health technology, there is the potential to transform patient care and improve outcomes. The Aptar Digital Health respiratory disease management platform, a digital therapeutic will be utilized to determine its value and how it supports: i) asthma patient engagement and facilitates communication between patients and providers to accelerate medication adherence; ii) asthma control through the use of the Asthma Control Questionnaire-5. In addition, spirometry and fractioned exhaled nitric oxide will be utilized during the study to validate and enhance current National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to describe infectious and non-infectious lower respiratory tract diseases in children with Down syndrome followed in pediatric pulmonology consultations in Ile de France.
Pediatric dyspnea is a major health problem, accounting for up to 27% of admissions to emergency departments in winter. It is estimated that a significant number (13%) of patients presenting to emergency departments are outpatients, at a time when emergency departments are having to cope with an ever-increasing flow of patients. Proper referral of patients calling the SAMU Centre-15 takes on its full meaning in this context, but regulating paediatric calls is more difficult. Indeed, the regulating doctor is most often in contact with the parents, who describe what they see and pass on their concerns, and it is difficult to have direct contact with patients who are often very young. Obtaining objective criteria such as saturation and respiratory rate is also a real challenge. To overcome the complexity of medical regulation, a number of tools and aids have been developed, including visio or video-regulation (regulation via the camera on the caller's smartphone). This device has been evaluated in a number of situations, enabling it to take its place in the daily practice of many doctors, but there is very little data concerning pediatric visio-regulation, particularly with regard to dyspnea. To the best of the investigator knowledge, there is no prospective study looking at the impact of Video-Regulation on the outcome of patients requiring the advice of SAMU Centre-15 for pediatric dyspnea.
A wearable remote patient monitor (AeviceMD) is to be used to monitor the respiratory health of pediatric asthma patients in this pilot study. Patients prescribed with AeviceMD should be able to gain better control over their disease during home management. Physicians should be able to optimize treatment for these patients using objective data collected from and of these patients outside of the clinic. The AeviceMD should also be used as a remote auscultation device for teleconsultations.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the auxiliary benefits of three-dimensional printed activating assistive devices for soft-mist inhaler on patients' utilization habit.
This is a phase IIa, dose-ranging, proof-of-concept study of MRG-001 in patients with ARDS. The aim is to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of MRG-001 across two dose ranges.
