Filter by:This is an observational study examining inhaler adherence and subsequent changes in blood eosinophil count in exacerbations of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) population. The study will run for 6 months as an observation period. Passive inhaler adherence monitoring will be done electronically via inhaler sensors connected to mobile Apps, and collecting symptoms questionnaires, diary of exacerbation events and trial visits predominantly in remote fashion. It will explore the feasibility of digital platform in clinical practice to collect the adherence data along with exacerbation events.
The goal of this observational study is to describe the impacts of COVID-19 on primary care chronic condition management in Canada within various patient populations. This will be done by analyzing primary care electronic medial record (EMR) data from the Canadian Primary Care Sentinel Surveillance Network (CPCSSN) database, including data on primary care encounters, as well as various markers for chronic conditions. The research questions to be investigated are: 1a) What are the changes to the management of chronic conditions in primary care since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic? 1b) How do these changes differ by age, health status, and socioeconomic status?
This study is conducted on the evaluation of balance, physical activity, functional capacity and activities of daily living in frail elderly individuals with COPD.
The aim of our study is to examine the Peripheral Muscle Oxygenations at rest and in motion on the 2nd day of hospitalized patients and before discharge in Severe Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and to compare the results in the hospital periods by repeating the tests in the stable periods of the patients 1 month after discharge.
People with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are at greater risk for Metabolic syndrome (MetS). Although the management of MetS will not cure COPD, it can beneficially impact health outcomes and quality of life through lifestyle modifications. The study aims to determine if using the Digital Metabolic Rehab program, which is based on preventive self-care and includes three key pillars of health: nutrition, fitness, and mindfulness, will be feasible to reduce or reverse MetS for individuals living with COPD.
The goal of observational study is to evaluation of skeletal muscle function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease before and after lung rehabilitation training using ultrasonic elastography in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The main question it aims to answer are:Evaluation of skeletal muscle function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease before and after lung rehabilitation training using ultrasonic elastography. Participants will undergo pulmonary rehabilitation.
The goal of observational study is to Evaluation of the effectiveness of the self-developed pulmonary lobar ventilation detector in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The main question it aims to answer are:Evaluation of the effectiveness of the self-developed pulmonary lobar ventilation detector. Participants will use the self-developed pulmonary lobar ventilation detector and the imported Chartis detection system to evaluate the target pulmonary lobar collateral ventilation.
evaluate the value of different scores in predicting hospital mortality and Need for MV In patients presented to ED with AECOPD.
To investigate the relationship among the neural respiratory drive (NRD), the sensation of the dyspnea and the effect of the bronchodilator on each stage COPD patients.
There is a lack of effective treatments for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with pulmonary hypertension. Previous studies have found that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) can reduce pulmonary artery pressure and improve exercise capacity in COPD with pulmonary hypertension patients. However, the specific mechanism is unclear. The study aims to evaluate pulmonary ventilation/perfusion, pulmonary artery pressure, oxygenation, symptoms and quality of life in COPD with pulmonary hypertension patients after short-term treatment with iNO. Observing a series of pathophysiological changes caused by the treatment of pulmonary hypertension with iNO in COPD, the investigators hope to provide new theoretical basis and research ideas.
