Filter by:The study is designed to compare circuit training and otago exercise program for improvement of balance in COPD patients. Although both techniques are effective for balance training but Otago exercise program is home-based exercise program, which, if proven effective, will help the COPD patients to do work up at home, thereby reducing cost of hospital visits and improving balance ability and thus the quality of life more effectively.
The study of the diaphragm is an important point in the assessment of COPD patients. Ultrasonographic evaluation of the diaphragm is considered a simple, non-invasive, available bedside technique. Ultrasonography can be used for evaluation of the site, structure, and motion of the diaphragm, assessment of excursion, and thickness. The aim of the study is ultrasonographic assessment of the diaphragm in COPD patients and its relation to disease severity
Individuals who have COPD need a nursing service, which provides qualified and effective professional care, self-care, and supportive care to perform their daily life activities, and improve their quality of life. It is predicted that the Chronic Care-Based Training Program to be implemented and the follow-ups can increase the level of self-efficacy and satisfaction, and raise awareness on the management of the disease in patients. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effects of the Chronic Care Model based education and telephone follow-up given to patients with COPD on self-efficacy and patient-reported outcomes. Also, the Modified Patient-Reported Outcome Scale for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-mCOPD-PRO scale, which will be used in the study, will be adapted into Turkish language and culture, and will be used in the study after its validity and reliability are examined.
COPD patient on Tiotropium Respimart divided into two group, Group A given aerochamber and Group B without aerochamber enroll in the study for total 18 week .
The PReSent study seeks to clarify the need, develop and test the feasibility and acceptability of a shared decision making intervention to support patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease make decisions about Pulmonary Rehabilitation. The study is split into two parts; (1) an observational study of healthcare professionals implicit attitudes, and (2) a feasibility and acceptability study assessing the value of the newly developed shared decision making intervention including a patient decision aid and decision coaching.
Aim: To investigate the efficacy of systemic corticosteroids in treatment for Post-COVID-19 Interstitial Lung Disease. Method: Method: In this multi-centre, prospective, randomised controlled open label clinical trial, patients are divided into two arms: standard treatment arm and standard plus systemic corticosteroid arm. After twelve weeks; clinical, functional, and radiological improvement will being assessed as primary outcomes.
This study aims to understand why some people who have had COVID-19 develop scarring of the lungs and why some people recover more quickly than others.
This was a 3 months prospective, open label, and parallel study to test the efficacy of 3 different corticosteroids in the management of interstitial lung diseases. Followed by a pharmacoeconomic analysis to find which regimen (betamethasone, dexamethasone or prednisolone) is the most cost-effective.
Patients with pSS seen in the Division of Rheumatology, the second affiliated hospital of Zhejiang University, School of Medicine (SAHZU) during January 2016 to July 2018, were retrospectively reviewed. Characteristics were analyzed.
To explore the HRCT phenotype of the combined COPD assessment staging system
