Filter by:Background: Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) mode is a new mode of ventilator, using electronic potential of diaphragm to adjust tidal volume. At the same time, this mode can trigger and cycle-off inspiratory time by high sensitivity of electronic potential of diaphragm, increase patient-ventilator synchrony, reduce sedative drug, improve oxygenation, shorten mechanical ventilation day and reduce the rate of diaphragm atrophy. It can improve survival rate and hospital day of patients. Both the animal and human experiment have the effect of lung and diaphragm protection Effect: The results of this trial are expected to obtain electronic potential of diaphragm in patients with obstructive pulmonary disease. Reviewing the current literature, few related literatures have such data presentation. This trial hopes to evaluate whether the use of NAVA can reduce mechanical ventilation day by analyzing electronic potential of diaphragm in patients with obstructive pulmonary disease. Investigators expect that participants with obstructive pulmonary disease using NAVA mode will have significantly less mechanical ventilation day than using conventional mode
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of astegolimab compared with placebo in participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are former or current smokers and have a history of frequent exacerbations.
The purpose of this study is to describe the design, methodology and evaluation of the preclinical test of Carebot AI CXR software, and to provide evidence that the investigated medical device meets user requirements in accordance with its intended use. Carebot AI CXR is defined as a recommendation system (classification "prediction") based on computer-aided detection. The software can be used in a preclinical deployment at a selected site before interpretation (prioritization, display of all results and heatmaps) or after interpretation (verification of findings) of CXR images, and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Given this, a retrospective study is performed to test the clinical effectiveness on existing CXRs.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a group of disease characterized by obstructed airflow. Usually, the lung structure is gradually impaired along with the progression of the disease. Recently, the treatment of disease is challenged by shortage of approaches for regenerating the injured lung tissue. Here in this study, investigators intend to perform a single-centered, open, concurrent-controlled phase I/II clinical trial with autologous bronchial basal cells on COPD treatment since they were proved to regenerate lung tissue in animal models. The participants is recruited and divided into experiment group and control group. For patients from experiment group, bronchial basal cells will be isolated, expanded, carefully characterized in vitro and transplanted autologously into lung by fiberoptic bronchoscopy. No intervention is performed for patients from control group. During the study, the safety and efficacy will be evaluated on all the subjects by measuring the key indicators.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the supplement, Fisetin, can be used as a treatment option for common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) by comparing its efficacy to placebo.
COPD causes an acute deterioration of respiratory symptoms, particularly increased breathlessness and cough, and increased sputum volume and/or purulence. Worsening airflow limitation is associated with an increasing prevalence of exacerbations and risk of death. These exacerbations can range from self-limited diseases to episodes of florid respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation .Hospitalization for COPD patients post COVID is associated with poor prognosis with increased risk of death. Hence techniques of efficient clearance of peripheral airways may reduce airway occlusion by excess mucus and inflammatory cells, improving lung function, exercise capacity and reducing exacerbation frequency.
It will be a randomized control trial at Services Hospital Lahore through convenience sampling technique which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped in to Group A and Group B . Group A: patients will be treated with basic breathing technique whereas Group B: will be treated by will be breathing technique along with diaphragm and abdominal training. The study will be completed within 6 months after synopsis approval from ethical Committee of RCRS & AHS . Data will be entered and analyzed by SPSS version 25. After assessing the normality of data , it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be use within a group or between two groups.
The combined measurement of the pulmonary diffusing capacity to carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO) (DLCO/NO) during exercise may be a useful physiological measure of alveolar-capillary reserve in patients with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The present study investigated the test-retest reliability of DLCO/NO-based metrics.
This is a 12-week (with an extension to 52 weeks in a subset of participants) study comparing the safety of BGF MDI HFO twice daily (BID) with BGF MDI HFA BID in participants with moderate to very severe COPD.
This is an Expanded Access Program (EAP) for eligible participants with Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD) designed to provide access to Inhaled Treprostinil. Availability will depend on territory elegibility.
