Bronchial asthma may present with symptoms other than the commonly reported complaints (cough, chest tightness, shortness of breath and wheezing). Less common symptoms include chronic or recurrent productive cough, inspiratory dyspnoea or recurrent pneumonia. Children presenting with these symptoms are often diagnosed with asthma bronchiale and benefit from antiasthmatic management.
this study aimed to compare characters in pulmonary function of patients with cough variant asthma and chronic cough and establish a diagnostic model.
The use of mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) in children with neuromuscular diseases (NMD) is recommended by international guidelines and societies and well documented. Many authors have shown that MI-E is safe and effective for airway clearance and has a significant benefit in reducing the duration of the airway clearance session in children with respiratory infections and atelectasis or in the postoperative period. However, its use in paediatrics is still poorly supervised and learning the technique is too often therapist- and/or patient-dependent. The use of a protocol or means of help to guide the initiation and learning of MI-E would allow better use, better adaptation of the settings and potentially better compliance with the treatment. The aim of this study is to test whether the use of a coaching module (playful visual stimulation) in addition to guidance by a physiotherapist improves the learning and effectiveness of the technique compared to guidance alone.This randomized controlled study will first include healthy children, aged 6 to 12 years, with no history or recent respiratory infection affecting lung function or other chronic diseases. In a second phase, the investigators will test the use of the learning process in children with neuromuscular diseases. The investigators hope that the results of this study will provide a better framework for the learning and effectiveness of MI-E. Furthermore, if the results are positive, this will allow better support for the use of MI-E in chronic treatments and help to ensure that this costly treatment for hospitals and public health is used efficiently.
To investigate the effect of coughing as an intervention to reduce pain in colposcopy guided biopsy.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare two different orotracheal tubes in patients which require orotracheal intubation for general anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To assess the presence of laryngeal injury - To evaluate the consequences in voice quality - To ask for the presence of symptoms as sore throat, hoarseness, and cough Participants will be randomly assigned into two groups, one will use conventional endotracheal tube and the other will use Triglotix® endotracheal tube.
Upper respiratory infections (URIs) have long posed a significant burden to the US healthcare system. Well before the coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic they have been among the most common acute outpatient illnesses, causing 75-100 million physician visits each year on average, and costing the health care system billions of dollars annually. This double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study tested the efficacy of two anti-inflammatory throat sprays against placebo and against a throat spray taken in conjunction with 325mg of aspirin, a well-known systemically administered cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor. Participants having common cold symptoms lasting less than two days were enrolled and given treatment to administer at home. Various common cold symptoms were assessed and measured via clinically validated self-assessment scales. Participants were screened for influenza and COVID-19 before enrollment and were excluded if found positive.
This study will investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ascending multiple doses of HS-10383 in healthy subjects using a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, single center study design.
Cough is one of the most common symptoms in COPD patients, and its different characteristics in amplitude, frequency and waveform can be analyzed by intelligent algorithms for the auxiliary diagnosis of COPD. The current study is to conduct external clinical validation of COPD auxiliary diagnosis algorithm and lung function prediction algorithm, and preliminatively verify the performance of the algorithm, with the ultimate goal of developing a portable and rapid COPD auxiliary diagnosis and condition assessment tool that can be used at home.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effect of lidocaine bolus intravenous administration to lidocaine continuous intravenous administration in post thyroidectomy patients to observe the effect against post-extubation cough. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Cough incidence on both groups - Which method is preferable to reduce post-extubation cough incidence
