NCT ID: NCT03443479 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Comparison of High-flow Oxygen vs. BiPAP in Type II (Hypercapnic) Respiratory Failure

Start date: April 1, 2015
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A retrospective cohort study of all patients treated for type II (hypercapnic) respiratory failure with either High-Flow Oxygen Therapy or Non-Invasive Ventilation in a general adult hospital.

NCT ID: NCT03443427 Completed - Clinical trials for Respiratory Disorders

A Study to Test if a Third Dose of the Vaccine is Safe in Current and Former Smokers Aged 40 to 80 Years Old and to Gather Information on the Immune Response Following the Third Dose of the Vaccine

Start date: March 20, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test two different vaccine schedules to be used for administering the investigational NTHi Mcat vaccine that will be targeting patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to prevent acute exacerbations. An acute exacerbation is when the breathlessness in COPD patients will get even worse than it normally already is, sometimes to the point where oxygen therapy is required. In previous studies, study participants have received two doses of the vaccine according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care. The current study will find out if a third dose of the study vaccine against NTHi/Mcat is safe and working well. The study will also investigate if the third dose of vaccine works best when given after 6 months or after 12 months.

NCT ID: NCT03433729 Completed - Clinical trials for Respiratory Tract Diseases

Patient Agenda Setting and Clinic Efficiency in Outpatients

Start date: March 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to determine whether patients who use a prompt sheet to identify their important issues before they see a doctor are more likely to feel that their important issues have been discussed during their consultation. The study will be conducted in a respiratory outpatient clinic.

NCT ID: NCT03432117 Completed - Lung Cancer Clinical Trials

Evaluate Efficacy of Respiratory Rehabilitation Personalized Mobile Services for Respiratory Diseases

Start date: May 15, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This trial is multicenter prospective study to evaluate clinical efficacy of respiratory rehabilitation personalized mobile services for respiratory disease.

NCT ID: NCT03420209 Completed - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

The Effect of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) Technique for Children With Chronic Pulmonary Diseases.

Start date: December 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis are the most seen problems in children with chronic pulmonary diseases. İt is a genetic, chronic system disease that reduces life expectancy, and life quality as well. Chronic lung disease , malnutrition, and reduced activity, caused by disease lead to postural disorders. Muscle force, endurance, activity of Daily living are adversely affected. İn the treatment pulmonary rehabilitation are using. Airway clearance technique, pulmonary exercises, upper extremity ergometer, dumbbells, elastic bands, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique are applying. Resistance training using elastic bands has become an increasingly common intervention aiming to improve function by increasing muscular strength. İn one study indicated that muscle strength can be improved through three dimensional spiral large scale resistive exercises using proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. İn the literature there isn't any research , uses elastic bands with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for the upper extremity and evaluating pulmonary functions, posture, quality of life, muscle force. The aim of this study is giving exercises programme with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and elastic bands and to evaluate pulmonary muscle force, pulmonary functions, posture, activity of daily living, quality of life, functional capacity. And to evaluate the effect of treatment programme on these parameters. The subjects were divided in two groups. An experimental group three times a week for 12 weeks will perform proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises with elastic bands, and pulmonary exercises. The control group will apply only pulmonary exercises at home programme.

NCT ID: NCT03401463 Completed - Clinical trials for Respiratory Tract Infections

Assesment of the Endotracheal Tube Cuff Pressure Values in ICU Pateints Before and After Training Seminar

Start date: October 26, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is no accepted standard for the frequency of monitoring endotracheal tube cuff pressures (ETCP). the investigators plan on comparing two strategies for monitoring ETCP in mechanically ventilated patients. Nowadays ETCP is evaluated once every 24 hours. Next, the investigator want to conduct training for medical and nursing staff. After the training, ETCP will be measured every 8 hours. The aim of the study is to prove that more frequent pressure control (3 times a day) reduces the occurrence of abnormal ETCP.

NCT ID: NCT03392363 Completed - Pneumonia Clinical Trials

Diagnosing Respiratory Disease in Children Using Cough Sounds 2

SMARTCOUGH-C-2
Start date: January 5, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate the efficacy of the ResAppDx software application in the diagnosis of childhood acute respiratory disease, including pneumonia, bronchiolitis, asthma/reactive airways disease, croup, lower respiratory tract disease (LRTD), viral lower respiratory tract infection (vLRTI), and upper respiratory tract disease (URTD).

NCT ID: NCT03383601 Completed - Clinical trials for Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive

Сohort Study to Evaluate Exacerbations, Respiratory Symptoms, Physical Exercise Intolerance and Lung Functions Among Participants Who Use IQOS With Heatsticks Compared to Smokers of Conventional Cigarettes

Start date: December 16, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study evaluates frequency of exacerbations, respiratory symptoms, physical exercise intolerance and abnormal lung functions among participants who use IQOS with heatsticks compared to smokers of conventional cigarettes

NCT ID: NCT03351504 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Solar Lighting to Reduce Indoor Air Pollution in Rural Uganda

Start date: February 7, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the impact of a solar lighting system on kerosene lamp use, levels of indoor air pollution, and health in women living in rural Uganda. Half of the participants will receive the lighting systems immediately, while the other half will receive them after an 18 month delay.

NCT ID: NCT03342495 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Evaluating Innovations in Transition From Pediatric to Adult Care - The Transition Navigator Trial

TNT
Start date: February 6, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The Transition Navigator Trial (TNT) is a pragmatic randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of usual care plus a patient navigator service versus usual care plus newsletters and other educational materials, to improve transition outcomes among adolescents aged 16-21 who have chronic health conditions requiring transfer to adult specialty care. The study will provide urgently needed data to guide health care providers and policy makers regarding the provision of coordinated transition care. These results have the potential to: 1. Change care delivery 2. Improve health outcomes 3. Improve the experiences of young adult transition to adult care
