Filter by:The purpose of the investigation is to confirm the followings under the post-marketing actual use of Fasenra® Subcutaneous Injection 30 mg / 10mg Syringe (hereinafter referred to as Fasenra). 1. Development of unexpected related AEs* 2. To grasp development of related AEs* in the real-world post-marketing setting. 3. Effectiveness (pulmonary function and asthma control) * AEs investigator or MAH considers that there is a reasonable possibility that the experience may have been caused by the drug
The goal of this longitudinal observational study is to learn if impulse oscillometry (IOS) has an added value in asthma monitoring in adult asthma patients who are prescribed a change in asthma maintenance therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a difference in the change in IOS parameters and FEV1 respectively, stratified according to change in asthma control test? - Is there a difference in the change in IOS parameters and FEV1 respectively, stratified according to change in other questionnaire such as the asthma control questionnaire and the asthma quality of life questionnaire. - Are the proposed minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) valid for short follow-up periods (3 - 6 months)? Participants will undergo lung function testing (full lung function, multiple breath nitrogen washout, impulse oscillometry) and questionnaires (asthma control test, asthma control questionnaire, asthma quality of life questionnaire), once during the baseline visit and once during the follow-up visit three to six months later.
This is a prospective, non-interventional, single-arm, multicenter study to investigate asthma control, and health-related quality of life (HRQL), lung function and asthma medication intake in severe eosinophilic asthma patients treated with benralizumab in a real-life setting in Germany.
This study will measure lung function tests and examine biological samples collected before and after inhaled allergen challenges and diluent (control) challenges in participants with mild allergic asthma.
Our research group has found that Canadians with undiagnosed asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have increased respiratory symptoms and worse health-related quality of life. The investigators recently developed and validated an on-line questionnaire to accurately identify these symptomatic, undiagnosed individuals. The investigators will advertise in the community asking individuals to complete the on-line questionnaire at home, at their leisure, to determine if they are at risk of asthma or COPD. Those at risk will be invited to participate in a randomized, controlled clinical trial to determine whether early diagnosis of previously undiagnosed asthma or COPD and subsequent treatment by the primary care practitioner will improve their quality of life.
The research was planned in a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of technology-based education provided by peers and adults to children diagnosed with asthma in the 12-18 age group. The study will be conducted in two phases. The initial phase will assess the efficacy of the training provided to peer mentors. The subsequent phase will examine the impact of peer-led and adult-delivered technology-based education on quality of life, asthma control, asthma knowledge, and self-efficacy in adolescents diagnosed with asthma. The required institutional permission and ethics committee approval was received. The study group of the study will consist of 45 adolescents (intervention group 1 [n=15], intervention group 2 [n=15], and control group [n=15]). Data will be collected by using the descriptive features form, the Adolescent Asthma Self-Efficiacy Questionaire, the Asthma Quality of Life Scale for Children, the Asthma Control Test, the Asthma Knowledge Test.The data will be analyzed using the SPSS 27 program.
The primary objective of this randomized, double-blind, single/multiple ascending dose, placebo-controlled Phase I clinical trial was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SHR-4597 in healthy subjects and asthmatic patients. The study consists of two parts: Part 1 involves single ascending inhalation dose in healthy subjects; Part 2 involves multiple ascending inhalation dose in asthmatic patients, further divided into Part 2A: multiple ascending inhalation dose in mild to moderate asthmatic patients, and Part 2B: multiple ascending inhalation dose in moderate to severe asthmatic patients. Subsequent lung pharmacokinetic studies of SHR-4597 inhalation will be conducted based on patients' PKPD data.
The goal of this trial is to learn if the addition of oscillometry with reversibility testing increases diagnostic accuracy in adult asthma diagnosis, when added to current standard of care tests: spirometry with reversibility testing and Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO). The main question it aims to answer is: - Does oscillometry with reversibility testing increase diagnostic accuracy in detection of asthma in adults when added to spirometry with reversibility and FeNO? Researchers will evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of this approach with the reference standard, which is a clinically adjudicated diagnosis of asthma by two respiratory clinicians based on history and investigation results. Participants will - Undergo oscillometry testing alongside their routine asthma investigations within their scheduled clinic visit - Optionally participate in our sub-studies on new breath and nasal swab tests for asthma - Optionally participate in our qualitative substudy on patients views and attitudes to asthma testing and oscillometry
This is a randomized, open-label, 3-armed feasibility trial will examine conventional oxygen therapy (COT) vs high flow nasal cannula at 4L/min flow vs HFNC at 2L/kg/min flow (max 60L/min) in moderate to severe pediatric asthma exacerbations.
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.
