Filter by:Particulate matter exposure during smoke inhalation provokes inflammatory immune responses in people exposed to burning biomass including fire fighters and civilians. Persistent occupational exposure to particulate matter represents a unique hazard for firefighters, underpinning a burgeoning research area. This trial will evaluate the effects of sleep deprivation and circadian rhythm disruption on the inflammatory response to woodsmoke associated particulate matter exposure. Participants will undergo 2 experimental trials in a randomized cross-over design. Participants will have either an 8-hour sleep opportunity or a 4-hour sleep opportunity prior to reporting to lab for a 45 minute simulated firefighting trial (wood smoke associated particulate matter filtered to 2.5 um at a concentration of 250 ug/m^3, while exercising at a moderate intensity). The effects of sleep restriction and simulated firefighting will be measured.
Forty-six endurance runners, 23 males (age = 16.4±1.1) and 23 females (age=16.8±1.1) participated in our study. The contribution of abdominal, thoracic, and subclavian musculature to respiration and ventilation parameters during three different intensities on a cycle ergometer was assessed pre- and post-intervention.
The disease burden of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is growing rapidly, and multiple complications have been reported including cardiopulmonary and high fall risk which declines the overall quality of life. IMT can be useful technique to improve the physical and functional performance, reduce the severity of complications and enable the individuals to become active members of community. The current study is intended to evaluate the dual effects of IMT on postural stability and pulmonary function of diabetic patients.
This is a single site, open label, 4-inhalation sessions, explorative clinical investigation to investigate the ability of PreciseInhale to direct regional lung targeting and reduce the degree of throat deposition and subsequent gastrointestinal absorption of test drug substances in healthy volunteers after inhalation of test drug substances via the PreciseInhale system. The study will include a screening visit, 8 consecutive treatment visits and a follow-up telephone call 3-5 days after the last inhalation session. There will be a screening period of up to 35 days and an at least 1-week washout between treatments.
1. To determine the Effects of combined pursed lip breathing with diaphragmatic breathing on pulmonary functions in patient with COPD. 2. To determine the different durations of combined pursed lip breathing with diaphragmatic breathing on Pulmonary functions in patient with COPD. 3. To determine the Effects of combined pursed lip breathing with diaphragmatic breathing on quality of life in patient with COPD
In children with cerebral palsy, the gastric volume is measured through ultrasound after fasting before surgery to evaluate whether the risk of aspiration is higher than that of the general population.
The study is designed to compare the effects of blow bottle technique and interdigital exercises on the pulmonary functions of the post laparotomy patients where there is sudden decline in lung function and increased rate of complications after the surgery. A randomized control trial was conducted including post laparotomy patients, randomly allocated to interventional and control groups. Both the groups received breathing exercises along with conventional treatment during phase I rehabilitation. Data was collected at baseline, before and after every session and after 6 sessions before patient discharge from hospital. Outcome measures include assessment of lung volumes and capacities, oxygen saturation and vitals of the post laparotomy patients
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of single and multiple inhaled doses of imatinib inhalation solution (AER-901) in healthy adult volunteers. This study consists of 3 parts and an optional fourth part.
Background: In the midst of the devastating COVID pandemic where there is no specific and effective treatment, traditional therapy may help to ease the patient's suffering. Inhalation of vapor (VP) is an essential home remedy for stuffy, running nose in common cold, influenza and sinusitis. Steam inhalation is helpful in destroying the capsid of the SARS-CoV-2 envelope and preventing infection. Vapor with diclofenac sodium, menthol, methyl salicylate and N-acetyl cysteine may augment this effect. Objective: To evaluate the effect of inhalation of vapor with medication and to compare with inhalation of vapor without medication. Methods and Materials: A case control study taken place in Corona unit, Sher-E-Bangla Medical College Hospital, Barishal. 43 patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 were participated in this study. All are RT-PCR positive cases. Among them 16 patients were in control group and 27 in study group. In study group they were given vapor with Diclofenac Sodium, Menthol, Methyl Salicylate and N-Acetyl Cysteine and control group they were given normal steam/aquatic vapor two times in a day.
Abstract: Context/background: people affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) see their own life totally disturbed after the diagnosis. This disease also courses, apart from the functional and depressing worsening, with internal damage manifested by a cardio respiratory deterioration. There are not many clinical studies publications about this disease given that is considered a weird illness with short prognosis. Objectives: to examine the effects of the inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on respiratory muscle strength, heart rate variability (HRV), quality of life and mood in patients with ALS. Methods: 20 volunteer patients, male and female, with ALS, bulbar or spinal will take part of the cuasi-experimental study and they will be divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 10) and a control group (n = 10). The Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (PIM), the HRV, the quality of life and mood will be measured. The participants of experimental group will conduct 30 inspirations per day, 15 in the morning and 15 in the evening, 5 days per week, through 8 weeks. The resistance of the training in the experimental group will be increase acording to the PIM measured at the first visit. During the first week, the resistance will be at 30% of PImax, weeks 2 and 3 at 40%, weeks 4 and 5 at 50% and the last 3 weeks at 60%. After 8 weeks, all participants will fill up again all scales and post training measurements will be taken.
