Filter by:The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether lemborexant increases the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) on Day 8 of treatment in adult and elderly participants (adults greater than or equal to [>=] 45 to less than [<] 65 years; elderly >=65 to 90 years) with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared with placebo, and using pulse oximetry determine whether lemborexant decreases the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) during total sleep time (TST) on Day 8 of treatment in adult and elderly participants (adults >=45 to <65 years; elderly >=65 to 90 years) with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compared with placebo.
This is a research study to determine the efficacy and safety of investigational drug MEDI3506 for the treatment of adult subjects with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Chronic Bronchitis.
The ETAPES Program, a French national Experimentation in Telemedicine for the Improvement of Healthcare Pathways, was launched in 2018 for 4 years. Its objectives were to provide a temporary public reimbursement for medical telemonitoring in order to determine the benefits for the patient and the impact on medical organization and healthcare costs. In particular, this program applies to patients suffering from hypercapnic chronic respiratory failure and requiring home non invasive ventilation (NIV). For these patients, the ETAPES program combines NIV telemonitoring and therapeutic education. e-VENT study aims at evaluating the ETAPES program, implemented using the Chronic Care Connectâ„¢ telemonitoring solution, versus Standard of Care, on the effectiveness of home NIV, measured by average PtCO2, reflecting the level of nocturnal alveolar hypoventilation.
An average of 4.8 million journeys are made on the London Underground every day and as the 'Tube' has elevated airborne particulate matter concentrations compared to ambient air, this raises concern about the potential health impact of this environment. This study explores the health effects of particulate matter from the London Underground on patients with COPD and healthy volunteers. Patients with COPD and healthy participants will be invited to undertake a set 90 min journey on the London Underground, and on a separate occasion (3-8 weeks apart), a 90 min journey on the London Overground (as a proxy for a clean air London area while maintaining other aspects of a train journey). A series of clinical, physiological and inflammatory data will be collected before, during and after (at different time points) each of the sessions in order to compare their response in relation to exposure and/or to disease status.
A prospective blinded randomized clinical trial to compare time to extubation using Sugammadex versus Neostigmine/glycopyrrolate as reversal agents after use of neuromuscular blockade agents in an outpatient bronchoscopy suite.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether whole body exercise training alters the immunity in the lungs of people with COPD and reduces the incidence of chest infections over the longer term.
The study will evaluate bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of budesonide, glycopyrronium and formoterol (BGF) metered dose inhaler (MDI) formulated with 3 different propellants: Propellant 1 (Treatment A [test]), Propellant 2 (Treatment B [test]) and Hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) (Treatment C [reference]).
The 1-minute sit to stand (1-min STS) test is a standardized test which is used to examine exercise capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The chair seat height used is standardized to 46-48 cm. Using a standard seat height for all patients - irrespective of their body height - may lead to invalid estimates of functional exercise capacity. The objective of this study is to assess whether there is a difference in repetitions during the 1-min STS test if the seat height is adjusted to 90° knee joint angle or the standard height chair of 46 cm is used.
The purpose of this study is to determine if ensifentrine is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
The objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of a mobile self-management app in clinical practice for recently discharged COPD patients on application use, self-management, anxiety and depression, expectations and experiences, patients' and health care professionals' satisfaction and hospital readmissions.
