Participants with respiratory disease experience often a worsening of their condition, with increasing symptoms such as cough and shortness of breath. This worsening, often called exacerbation or flare up, impacts on the life of the participants, since they become limited in their daily activities. Healthcare is still based today on limited times for clinical appointments to perform investigations and to meet with specialists/clinicians. Very often, these evaluations do not reflect the way the disease is limiting the patient's life. Wearable devices offer the opportunity to collect data on physical activities and important clinical parameters (such as how the patient is active or just staying in bed during the day), on a daily basis. The HG Phoenix AI- based Smart Watch produced by Health Gauge, an Albertan company based in Edmonton, has the potential to measure heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, respiratory rate, temperature, arterial saturation, sleep pattern (deep, light sleep, awake time), duration and time, daily physical activities (site count and distance) and calories burnt in a simple and non-invasive fashion. Ideally, these parameters could be monitored and recorded 24 hours per 7 days per week. This study aims to demonstrate that this device can be used for a long time at home and it is comfortable to use for the participants, that it is not dangerous and, possibly, that it can help to identify exacerbations before the currently available investigations.
This research study is being conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using technology to deliver a remote home exercise program and assess the health outcomes of patients with chronic lung diseases. Specific objectives are to assess the interventions on patients: 1) Lung function, 2) Dyspnea, 3) Fatigue, 4) Exercise capacity, 5) Self-efficacy, and 6) Health-related quality of life. The investigators will also be evaluating the practicality of using videoconferencing and commercial wearable telemonitoring devices (ie. smart watches) for the implementation of the intervention in this group of patients.
This study aims to characterize the epidemiology of interstitial lung diseases (ILD) associated to connective tissue disease (CTD) in Mexico, and to study its correlation with the different comorbidities and treatments used, as well as the possible impacts of these factors on the outcome of progression, exacerbations, and mortality in patients with ILD associated to CTD.
The purpose of the study is to conduct a descriptive analysis of the population of patients with an interstitial lung disease received in the pulmonary department of University hospital of Nice (France). Analysis and documentation of clinical forms of the disease, therapeutics used and evolutions.
This research study will evaluate safety and how well the study drug, nintedanib improve symptoms in participants with myositis associated interstitial lung disease (MA-ILD). Interstitial lung disease is a disorder caused by the abnormal accumulation of cells structures between air sacs of the lungs resulting in thickening, stiffness and scarring of the tissues of the lung. This study will enroll a total of 134 participants across 15 clinical sites located in the United States. A subset of participants will be enrolled remotely via telemedicine utilizing certified mobile home research nurses and various remote monitoring devices. The research visits may include a physical exam, vital signs (such as blood pressure, heart rate, etc.), pulmonary function tests (PFT and/or home spirometry), Computerized Tomography (or CT) scans of the chest, blood draws, wearing a physical activity monitor and completing questionnaires. Some of these events may be done at home, at a local facility or remotely (via telemedicine).
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of vixarelimab compared with placebo on lung function in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and in participants with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). Participants who complete 52-weeks of treatment in the Double-blind Treatment (DBT) period can choose to enroll in the optional Open-label Extension (OLE) period to receive treatment with vixarelimab for another 52 weeks.
The goal of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a larger study on the efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil in people diagnosed with systemic sclerosis with mild lung involvement. Participants will be recruited over 12 months at 3 academic centers and assigned randomly to receive either mycophenolate mofetil or placebo, a look-alike substance that contains no active drug, for 96 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to compare AI performance to doctor's performance in the evaluation of IPF/UIP and ILDs without UIP(proven by biopsy).
Study GMS-PH-001 is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to prospectively evaluate screening strategies of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD).
