Filter by:This is an open-label study at one study center that will assess the effect of twice-daily nebulized ensifentrine on COPD Assessment Test (CAT™) scores over 12 weeks in subjects with moderate to severe COPD. Subjects will continue their long-acting dual or triple COPD maintenance treatments during study participation.
COPD is the chronic lung condition characterized by the damage and enlargement of the air sacs in the lungs, leading to breathing difficulties. A blockage may develop, which traps air inside your lungs. The patient shows clinical manifestation of cough, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath. This research of randomized clinical trial will check the combined effects of pursed lip breathing and coordinated breathing techniques to improve aerobic capacity and dyspnea in patients with COPD by taking sample of 54 patients through convenience sampling and randomly allocating them to two groups A and B out of which A will receive pursed lip breathing with aerobic exercise for 4 times per week for 4 week and duration will be 45-60 min, B will receive coordinated breathing with aerobic exercise for 4 times per week for 4 weeks. And duration will be 45-60 min.Pre and post training outcomes of aerobic capacity and dyspnea will be measured through Six minute walk test and dyspnea Borg scale, and Saint George respiratory questionnaire. The data will be analyzed through SPSS 21.
Patients diagnosed with COPD who applied to the Pulmonary Diseases Department of Kırıkkale Yüksek İhtisas Hospital will be included in the study. The aim of our study: It is aimed to investigate the effect of fear of movement due to dyspnea on respiratory function, muscle strength, physical performance and balance in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients.
The pre-stage of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (Pre-COPD) is challenging to diagnose. However, identifying Pre-COPD is a crucial step in the prevention and management of COPD. Endobronchial optical coherence tomography showed the value of diagnosis in Pre-COPD and COPD in previous researchs.
This clinical trial is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group dose-response phase 2 clinical trial study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bronpass Tab. in 96 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
This proposed project will be a single arm, non-masked study. Participants who are actively smoking with a diagnosis of COPD and new lung nodule, either confirmed or suspicious for lung cancer, with a plan for surgical resection will be recruited from the University of Vermont Medical Center (UVMMC) Lung Multidisciplinary Clinic (LMDC). All patients will be enrolled in prehab and offered smoking cessation therapy. The acceptability and feasibility of this intervention will be measured by percent enrollment in study, attendance, barriers to completion, and monitoring of adverse events. The effect of prehab will be measured by traditional metrics, including fitness, respiratory symptoms, and depression scale. Research outcomes will be measured by smoking habits, anxiety, and surgical complications. Investigators estimate that 20 participants over a two-year period will be sufficient to measure the safety and feasibility of this study. Investigators aim to enroll, on average, 2 participants per month in order to complete this study in a timely fashion. Participants will be enrolled in prehab on a rolling basis, as to not delay surgical timeline.
Lung transplantation has become standard of care for selected patients with end stage pulmonary disease. While on the lung transplantation waiting list, patient health, emotional wellbeing and quality of life can deteriorate. By improving or changing patient physical activity, healthy nutrition, tobacco cessation, patient preparation for lung transplantation can be optimized, risk of complications can be reduced, and outcomes post transplantation can be improved. The potential of health coaching to improve health outcomes has been demonstrated in several chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, congestive heart failure, and rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, health coaching was proven effective through telemedicine. No studies so far have addressed the potential effect of a pre-transplant health coaching program on existing medical conditions, transplant rates and post-transplant outcomes. Investigators hypothesized that health coaching can improve health outcomes and survival of lung transplantation candidates by supporting and growing patients' capacity to cope with the demands of their end stage pulmonary disease.
This is a retrospective-prospective, non-interventional, multi-centre study that will be conducted in routine clinical settings in Russia. Eligible patients with moderate to severe COPD routinely treated with BREZTRI will be observed according to routine clinical practice for up to 24 weeks.
Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a systematic intervention that focuses on eliciting and strengthening a person's intrinsic motivation to change. MET is rooted in motivational interviewing principles, emphasizing empathy, autonomy, and the evocation of the patient's own motivations for change. The therapy typically involves several sessions where therapists help patients identify personal goals, explore ambivalence towards change, and develop actionable plans to achieve their desired outcomes.
This study aims to determine if patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exhibit altered muscle properties (specifically changes in tone and stiffness) in both their respiratory muscles and skeletal muscles when compared to healthy individuals. The study will utilize the Myotonometer, a non-invasive device, to assess these properties.
