Filter by:The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD with a history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbations of COPD in the 12 months prior to enrolment. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with inhaled maintenance therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) throughout at least the last 3 months prior to enrolment.
This is a randomized, double blind, double dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group study to assess the efficacy and Safety of HRG2005 inhalation in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Approximately 200 patients with moderate to severe COPD will be randomized into the study.
The aim of this proof-of-concept study is to obtain data that will contribute to the development of sensor devices (biosensor and environmental sensor) for patients with lung diseases (e.g. COPD). The study aims to validate our previous results from healthy subjects by joint testing of the biosensor and environmental device in a real-world setting. Healthy subjects and COPD subjects will be exposed to air of a traffic dense urban region ("urban" air) and to filtered indoor air ("clean" air) during activity and rest. Environmental and biomarker sensors will be used to measure several biomarkers and environmental conditions.
The planned research will enable the assessment of rehabilitation's effects using two pulmonary rehabilitation models: conventional and supplemented with an education program for patients hospitalized due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Background Mental health issues are common and often overlooked in COPD patients. Digital psychological interventions might help, but their effectiveness in Chinese COPD patients hasn't been studied. This study aims to develop and evaluate EmoEase, a digital psychological intervention, for its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness in improving mental wellbeing in Chinese COPD patients. Methods This multicenter, two-arm, randomized controlled trial (RCT) will enroll at least 420 COPD patients over 35 years old. Participants will receive either usual care (control group) or usual care plus EmoEase (intervention group). Assessments will occur at baseline (T0), 4 weeks (T1), 8 weeks (T2), and 16 weeks (T3). Participants will complete questionnaires and undergo physical measurements. The primary outcome will be mental wellbeing measured by the Warwick Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS). Secondary outcomes will assess mental and physical health, COPD symptoms, health risk behaviors, socioeconomic factors, and healthcare use and costs. Analyses will use an intention-to-treat approach. Discussion This is the first RCT to evaluate EmoEase for COPD patients. If effective and cost-effective, EmoEase could be scaled up to provide mental health support to COPD patients in China.
The aim of the study In this study, pranayama yoga practices are the sub-dimensions of respiratory parameters, symptom and disease affection level, psychosocial adjustment and psychosocial adjustment in individuals with COPD. It was planned in a randomized controlled manner to examine the effects of healthcare compliance, professional environment, family environment, sexual relations, extended family relationships, social environment and psychological pressure. Pranayama yoga practices are aimed to reduce the frequency of symptoms and the level of disease exposure in individuals with COPD. Pranayama yoga practices are aimed to increase psychosocial adjustment in individuals with COPD. Pranayama yoga practices aim to increase compliance with health care, occupational, social and family environment, sexual and extended family relationships, and psychological pressure, which are the sub-dimensions of psychosocial adjustment in individuals with COPD. It is observed that all the yoga practices performed have improved the pulmonary functions of individuals with COPD, decrease the severity of symptoms, relieve inflammation, and increase muscle strength and physical performance. It was concluded that because of yoga increases awareness in patients, patients significantly reduce their level of depression and anxiety and adapt to social life. Yoga improves patients' quality of life by alleviating symptoms and increasing self-awareness. pranayama yoga practices are safe, home-applied, effective, cost-effective, complementary to drug therapy and can be performed during pulmonary rehabilitation for individuals with COPD (1-2) . The results of this study are important in guiding caregivers and healthcare professionals during the holistic care of COPD individuals and in pulmonary rehabilitation.
Purpose of research:to explore a reasonable programmed withdrawal process of noninvasive ventilation and thereby reduce the duration of noninvasive mechanical ventilation in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
This study aims to support EOL decision-making in patients with advanced COPD and their family members. A parallel two-arm single-blinded randomised controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effects of a specific decision support intervention. A total of 226 patients with advanced COPD and their designated family members will be recruited from hospital wards and outpatient clinics.
This study determines whether quercetin supplementation reduces the inflammation and oxidative stress markers in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is small study with 8 subjects receiving quercetin 1000 mg/day, 8 patients receiving 500 mg/day and 4 subjects receive placebo.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a chronic disease with increasing mortality, morbidity and prevalence in the world and in our country, and in which serious symptoms, especially dyspnea, develop. Due to dyspnea and symptoms, patients experience deterioration in their health status and an increase in care dependency. This research is a single-blind, randomized controlled experimental study designed to determine the effects of pursed lip breathing exercise and laughter therapy on dyspnea severity, health status and care dependence in individuals with COPD. The research will be carried out with a total of 63 patients in Ankara City Hospital Chest Diseases unit. The patients will be stratified according to smoking status and COPD Assessment Test scores with the randomization program and assigned to 2 intervention groups and 1 control group. During the first interview, patients in the 1st intervention group will be provided with pursed lip breathing exercise training and application, and training videos and brochures will be given. 2. The patients in the intervention group will be given laughter therapy training and practice, and an educational brochure will be given. The patients in the control group will also receive face-to-face training on lung structure and functioning, and a brochure will be given. Patients in the laughter therapy and pursed lip breathing exercise intervention groups will be asked to perform these practices three days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) for 8 weeks. At the beginning of the study, at the 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks, the Dyspnea 12-TR Scale, the COPD Evaluation Test, and the Care Dependency Scale will be administered to both the intervention and control group patients. In the application of the scales and the analysis of the data, the groups will be blinded, and the scale application will be made by an independent interviewer. After the analysis of the data in terms of normal distribution was done with the Kolmogorow Smirnov test, in the comparison of the data of the patients in the intervention and control groups; One Way Analysis of Variance or Kruskal-Wallis Analysis of Variance will be applied. Analysis of Variance in Repeated Measurements or Freidman's test will be used to calculate the change in groups over time. The statistical significance limit will be accepted as p<0.05.
