Filter by:Non-commercial depersonalized multi-centered registry study on analysis of chronic non-infectious diseases dynamics after SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults.
The objective of this randomised controlled trial is to test, whether telehealthcare can improve HRQOL and reduce emergency admissions and hospitalisations due to AECOPD. Different outcome parameters as described in the endpoints section will be analysed.
Listening to breath sounds with the stethoscope/auscultation is used by pulmonary physicians in conjunction with pulmonary function, signs and symptoms, oxygen saturation and diagnostic testing to admit, follow and discharge patients from hospital. Of these, only auscultation routinely ceases upon discharge from Hospital. Healthcare utilization statistics have shown that for more than a decade, readmission after discharge for an exacerbation of COPD or severe asthma (or chronic heart failure) remains a major problem. The Strados System has been designed to extend the range of lung sound recording both geographically and temporally to improve the standard of care when access to continuous monitoring has been replaced by periodic or no monitoring. The primary purpose of this study is to assess the clinical utility of the Strados System in enabling periodic recording and reviewing of breath sounds in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, either in the ICU, or in less continuously monitored settings, including after inpatient discharge.
The purpose of this study is to test an existing home-based pulmonary rehab program with the addition of video chat and a capability of a Spanish version.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effects of an integrated care plan based on an mHealth web-based platform (HappyAir) on adherence to a 1-year maintenance program applied after pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD patients. Methods: COPD patients from three hospitals were randomized to a control group or an intervention group (HappyAir group). Patients from both groups received an 8-week program of pulmonary rehabilitation and educational sessions about their illness. After completion of the process, only the HappyAir group completed an integrated care plan for 10 months, supervised by an mHealth system and therapeutic educator. The control group only underwent the scheduled check-ups. Adherence to the program was rated using a respiratory physiotherapy adherence self-report (CAP FISIO) questionnaire. Other variables analyzed were adherence to physical activity (Morisky-Green Test), quality of life (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test, St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire, and EuroQOL-5D), exercise capacity (6-Minute Walk Test), and lung function.
one-centered, open, non-randomized, controlled clinical trial will focus on a comprehensive study of the clinical, functional and molecular biochemical characteristics of the natural course of COPD in combination with peripheral atherosclerosis
Semi-structured qualitative interviews will be conducted to understand key factors that would enable / facilitate patients with chronic breathlessness to potentially use an online breathlessness intervention (SELF-BREATHE).
The study team proposes a two-arm pilot study randomizing participants with COPD who smoke combustible cigarettes (CC) to counseling + NRT (standard of care) or counseling + e-cigarettes.
Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) disease highest mortality and morbidity of respiratory diseases that third cause of death in the world and Turkey. Purpose: Purpose of study improve self-efficacy, anxiety/depression, symptom control and exercise capacity, reduce use of health care of COPD patients. Method: The study was conducted with a randomized controlled design. This study were included 41 COPD patients (İntervention=20, Control=21). Data collection tools were patient description form, COPD Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES), COPD Assessment Test (CAT), Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HAD), 6-Minute Walk Test (MWT) and tele-health form. Intervention consists patient education, training booklet and 3 month follow-up. Control group patients received only general care. The final test was performed three months later.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if the participation of COPD patients to a workshop on advance directives increases the number of patients who write them.
