NCT ID: NCT05922267 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Comparative Effects of ACBT and Slow Expiration in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by nonreversible airway obstruction. A diagnosis of COPD is determined by clinical assessment of airflow limitation and symptoms such as cough and wheeze; however, the detrimental effect of COPD symptoms on a patient's quality of life is often underestimated. Rehabilitation exercise can lessen the possibility of the progressive exacerbation of the patient's condition, exerting an active role in improving their lung function and the quality of the patients' life .Therefore, Active cycle breathing techniques (ACBT) is a cycle of techniques consisting of breathing control, lower thoracic expansion exercises and the forced expiration technique modifiable for every patient to reduce condition . The effect of ELTGOL on mucus clearance of right and left lungs, especially of peripheral lung areas, in stable patients with COPD . A couple of relaxed breaths and when you are ready go on to your huff. Repeat the huff two or three times until you have the urge to cough. Once you have cleared your chest have a few normal relaxed breaths and start the cycle over again with deep breaths and huffs. A Randomized clinical trial, subjects with age group between 4O-70 years. In Group -A subjects (n=15) were treated with Active Cycle of Breathing Technique where Group-B subjects (n=15) received ELTGOL training . This study is to compare the effectiveness of ACBT and ELTGOL on improving the Quality Of Life and increasing Functional Capacity in subjects with COPD . Assessment will be done before and after intervention and result will be analyzed using statistical package for social sciences SPSS 20.

Modified Borg Dyspnea (RPE) Scale, Breathlessness, Cough and Sputum Scale (BCSS), Fatigue Severity Scale or Visual Analogue Scale, Peak flow meter, Oximeter will be used to measure the outcomes. Data will be analysed using the SPSS 21.0 Statistical Software

NCT ID: NCT05922241 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Comparative Effects of Costophrenic Assisted Cough and Anterior Chest Compression Technique in COPD Patients

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs. Symptoms include breathing difficulty, cough, mucus (sputum) production and wheezing. In Costophrenic assist, the therapist gives a quick stretch to the diaphragm and intercostals with repetitions. The patientt holds air in the lungs. As the patient gets ready to cough, the therapist performs a diaphragmatic assist. In Anterior chest compression: the therapist places one arm across the patient's pectorals and the other parallel to it. After the patient takes a maximal breath, the therapist pushes down to help the patient cough. The greatest force is applied through the lower chest during expulsion. A total 34 patients will be taken. 2 groups will be created to apply intervention. After signing consent form, 17 patients in group A will be given costophrenic assist technique and 17 patients in group B will be given anterior chest compression technique. Baseline treatment given to both groups will include percussion and tapping. The data collected will then be analyzed using IBM SPSS version 25

NCT ID: NCT05914285 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Assessment of Salbutamol Effect on Arterial Oxygenation in COPD Patients During One-lung Ventilation

Start date: April 25, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

One-lung ventilation (OLV) is essential part of anesthesia during thoracic procedures. However, OLV induces a drastic increase of intrapulmonary shunt due to maintained pulmonary perfusion through the nonventilated lung, which may result in severe hypoxemia. Although the protective mechanisms of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction favorably modulate pulmonary perfusion to the ventilated lung, the effect is attenuated in patients with history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which alters compliance of the pulmonary artery. Salbutamol is a selective short-acting beta2-agonist and when inhaled during OLV, it acts selectively on the pulmonary vasculature reducing pulmonary vascular resistance of well-ventilated lung. We hypothesized that inhaled salbutamol would alleviate ventilation-perfusion mismatch during OLV of COPD patients, and aimed to assess the effects of salbutamol on oxygenation in these patients.

Machine Learning-based Models in Prediction of DVT and PTE in AECOPD Patients

Start date: January 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common respiratory system disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and irreversible airflow restriction, which seriously endangers people's health. Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) refers to individuals who experience continuous deterioration beyond their daily condition and need to change their routine medication. AECOPD is usually caused by viruses and bacteria, and patients require hospitalization, which brings a huge economic burden to society. AECOPD patients often have limited activities. Because long-term chronic hypoxia causes venous blood stasis, siltation causes secondary red blood cell increase, and blood hypercoagulability, AECOPD patients have a high risk of pulmonary embolism (PE). Pulmonary Thrombo Embolism (PTE) refers to a disease caused by blockage of the pulmonary artery or its branches caused by a thrombus from the venous system or right heart. AECOPD patients experience elevated hemoglobin levels and increased blood viscosity due to long-term hypoxia. At the same time, such patients have decreased activity, venous congestion, and are prone to thrombosis. After the thrombus falls off, it can travel up the vein, causing PTE to occur in the right heart PTE is often secondary to low deep vein thrombosis (DVT). About 70% of patients were diagnosed as deep vein thrombosis in lower limb color ultrasound examination. SteinPD conducted a survey on COPD patients and general patients from multiple hospitals. The results showed that by comparing adult COPD patients with non COPD patients, the relative risk of DVT was 1.30, providing evidence for AECOPD being more likely to combine with PTE AECOPD patients with PTE have similarities in their clinical manifestations. It is difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, such as cough, increased sputum production, increased shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. They lack specificity and are difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, which can easily lead to missed diagnosis. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of PTE, but due to the high cost of testing and high equipment prices, its popularity in grassroots hospitals is not high. Therefore, analyzing the risk factors of AECOPD patients complicated with PTE is of great significance for early identification of PTE. At present, although there are reports on the risk factors for concurrent PTE in AECOPD patients, there is no specific predictive model for predicting PTE in AECOPD patients. In clinical practice, risk assessment tools such as the Caprini risk assessment model and the modified Geneva scale are commonly used for VTE, while the Wells score is the PTE diagnostic likelihood score. The evaluation indicators of these tools are mostly clinical symptoms, and laboratory indicators are less involved, It is difficult to comprehensively reflect the patient's condition, so the specificity of AECOPD patients with PTE is not strong. The column chart model established in this study presents a visual prediction model, which is convenient for clinical use and has positive help for the early detection of AECOPD patients with PTE. In addition, medical staff can present the calculation results of the column chart model to patients, making it easier for patients to understand. It helps improve the early identification and treatment of AECOPD combined with PTE patients, thereby improving prognosis.
