Filter by:Patients with respiratory insufficiency, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, bronchiectasis, and, to a lesser extent, other pathologies that result in respiratory insufficiency and require rehabilitation are admitted to in-hospital Respiratory Rehabilitation. Several studies have assessed the impact of comorbidities in the most frequent respiratory diseases such as COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis in terms of worsening mortality, morbidity, and disease progression. However, to our knowledge, there is no reliable quantification in Italy of the percentage of the presence of mental disorders (psychiatric/neurodegenerative) according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Diploma in Social Medicine (DSM)-5 classification in respiratory patients as well as the prevalence of mental disorders present among patients requiring in-hospital rehabilitation programs. The study hypothesizes that these disorders are present among patients admitted to rehabilitation centers and that they may impact the final rehabilitation outcome.
The aim of GENESIS clinical study is to map the HLA genomic region in the Greek population and evaluate possible correlations with selected underlying diseases.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of dialectical treatment in the patients with CAP after discharge in a prospective cohort study: one is the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) cohort, which has been evaluated and has certain effects; The other is a non traditional Chinese medicine queue.
The aim of this clinical research study was to determine the effect of the use of a cartoon character mask on treatment compliance and parental satisfaction and to evaluate the effectiveness of the cartoon character mask in children receiving inhaled therapy for the treatment of respiratory system diseases in children. The hypotheses it aims to answer are as follows: H1: Inhalers given using a mask with a cartoon character facilitate treatment compliance. H2: The inhaler given using a mask with a cartoon character makes treatment compliance difficult. H3: Inhaler treatment using a mask with a cartoon hero increases parental satisfaction. H4: Inhaler treatment using a mask with a cartoon hero decreases parental satisfaction. H5: Inhaler treatment using a mask with a cartoon hero has a positive effect on the hospitalization process. H6: Inhaler treatment using a mask with a cartoon hero has a positive effect on the recovery process. H7: Compared to routine inhaler mask use, the use of masks with cartoon heroes provides a positive relationship between treatment adherence and parental satisfaction. In the study, according to randomization, the intervention group will receive inhalers with masks, and the other group will receive inhalers routinely used in the clinic. The treatment of the children was planned by the physician, and no additional treatment was given for the study. Children's adherence to treatment and parents; satisfaction will be evaluated. The effectiveness of the masked inhaler used will be asked.
This is an open-label, single arm Phase II study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adebelizumab combined with carboplatin/Cisplatin plus (+) etoposide and concurrent radiotherapy in the first-line treatment of patients with extensive stage oligometastatic small cell lung cancer.
This goal of the open-label single dose study is to evaluate and compare the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), and immunogenicity of AIO-001 using two different formulations in 16 healthy volunteers.
Aim is to to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a clinical adjudication committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects will be consented/enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF). The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a clinical adjudication committee (CAC) will determine the final clinical diagnosis using the disease case definitions, eCRF data and the subject's medical record. Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed. The blinded ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses.
Aim of study is to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of paediatric respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a Clinical Adjudication Committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for paediatric respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects/parents will be assented/consented, enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF).The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject/parent and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a CAC will determine the final clinical diagnosis for each enrolled subject using the disease case definitions, eCRF data, the subject's medical record and cough sound recordings.Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost and time of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed.The blinded ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses for this cohort.
Patients with chronic respiratory disease may be prescribed oxygen therapy. Currently, the dose of oxygen flow is fixed (FixedO2) depending on activity level i.e. rest, physical activity and sleep. Automated Titration of Oxygen (AutoO2) is a closed-loop system in which the oxygen flow to the patient is continuously machine adjusted to meet the patient's immediate needs on the basis of signals from pulse oximetry (SpO2). The purpose of this study is to examine if automated oxygen control based on pulse oximetry provided to participants is superior to prescribed fixed oxygen flow in keeping SpO2 within the intended target interval of 92 to 96% arterial oxygen saturation.
Vapendavir (VPV) is a drug being developed to treat human rhinovirus (RV) infection, one virus responsible for the common cold. Vapendavir prevents the virus from entering cells and making more infectious copies of itself. A study is being planned to investigate VPV in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a lung disease making it difficult to breathe) who develop a rhinoviral infection; however, VPV has not been approved for use in treating any indication (disease) by the FDA or any other global regulatory agency. Therefore, VPV is considered investigational, and the study doctor is conducting this investigational research study. Safety will be monitored throughout the entire study.
