Filter by:The purpose of this study is to identify the safest dose of recombinant surfactant protein D (drug name: rfhSP-D) that can be administered to preterm infants born at less than 28 weeks gestation, and to help identify whether this can prevent the development of neonatal chronic lung disease.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate Efficacy and safety of beta-glucan supplement in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.
The objective of this research is to translate the Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation Acceptance Scale into Turkish and assess its reliability and accuracy.
Exercise has been reported to lead to improvements in Bone Mineral Density (BMD), however studies looking into the effects of exercise on BMD in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients are still very limited. In view of this, the aims of such a study are to identify whether a 16-week Pulmonary Rehabilitation programme leads to improvements in BMD in patients with osteopenia and osteoporosis diagnosed with stable COPD, something which is warranted to reduce the risk of fractures and their related adverse consequences in these patients.
This study intends to collect ophthalmologic examination results, pulmonary examination results and related indexes from patients with pulmonary disease and control populations, and combine big data analysis and artificial intelligence technology to explore whether new methods can be provided for early screening strategies for pulmonary disease with the aid of ophthalmologic examination, and thus assist in identifying the types of pulmonary disease and determining disease prognosis.
The new image reconstruction algorithm (Precise Image, Philips Healthcare) has a strong potential to maintain sufficient image quality suitable for diagnosis with ultra-low dose (ULD) chest and abdomen-pelvis scans. The hypothesis is that the images obtained with the Precise Image algorithm for ULD acquisitions are of sufficient and suitable quality for the diagnosis of certain lung, abdominal-pelvic and bone lesions.
This study aims to characterize the epidemiology of interstitial lung diseases (ILD) associated to connective tissue disease (CTD) in Mexico, and to study its correlation with the different comorbidities and treatments used, as well as the possible impacts of these factors on the outcome of progression, exacerbations, and mortality in patients with ILD associated to CTD.
Tele-monitoring emerged and unfolded differently among various healthcare organisations and countries. Evidence regarding its impact on the management of COPD patients is still insufficient to draw firm conclusions. Assumption has been made that remote monitoring of home NIV treatment could help to identify novel predictors of the early detection of NIV failure and deteriorations in patients with COPD. The incidence in routine clinical care of unplanned all-cause and COPD-caused hospitalisations in patients treated with NIV therapy who are continuously monitored by telemetric data in France needs evaluation. In addition, predictors of unplanned all-cause and COPD-caused hospitalisations as well as of compliance and persistence to NIV therapy should be assessed in this patient population with special respect to continuous tele-monitoring. The study will determine in France the incidence in routine clinical care of unplanned all-cause and COPD-caused hospitalisations in patients treated with NIV therapy who are continuously monitored by telemetric data. Clinical and telemetric predictors of unplanned all-cause and COPD-caused hospitalisations and of NIV therapy compliance and persistence will be assessed in those patients
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 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.
