Primary aim: To investigate if app-based education and training of inhalation technique improves the rate of successful inhalation techniques compared with control group at 6-12 weeks follow-up visit. Secondary aims: To evaluate the feasibility, usability, and safety of the investigational during the study period. Study design: Two-armed, parallel-designed, individual single-blinded …
This randomized controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effect of education and motivational interviewing on treatment adherence and self-care power in COPD patients. Hypotheses of the Study; H1: Education and motivational interviewing in COPD patients increase treatment adherence in patients. H2: Education and motivational interviewing in COPD patients …
This multicenter, cross-over study aims to investigate the effects of two different respiratory strategies, the use of high flow nasal cannula (NHF) and the use of home mechanic ventilation (HMV), both associated with standard oxygen therapy, in patients with COPD and persistent hypercapnia following a severe acute exacerbation. The purpose …
Our research group has found that Canadians with undiagnosed asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have increased respiratory symptoms and worse health-related quality of life. The investigators recently developed and validated an on-line questionnaire to accurately identify these symptomatic, undiagnosed individuals. The investigators will advertise in the community asking …
The main goal of this phase llb study is to compare the efficacy and safety of two doses of HEC585 tablets with placebo which is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases. This study is divided into two stages, i.e. main …
This study aims to more accurately assess cardiac function, ventilation and exercise capacity in a non-invasive fashion, and to better characterize exercise intolerance in the setting of three populations of individuals with chronic diseases of childhood (acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic lung disease (CLD) of prematurity, and post-heart transplant (HT))
The mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to oncogene-targeted therapy can be determined from tumor tissue or tumor cell lines derived from available archival samples and/or from standard-of-care re-biopsy upon suspected tumor progression.
Create a living biobank of PDOs from Stage I-III lung cancer patients.
In this pilot study the investigators propose the intraoperative use of a high-resolution PET-CT imaging system which can assess resection margins and lymph node status in the operating room. This will allow for a faster and stepwise assessment (estimated to be under 10 minutes per specimen), enabling the surgeon to …
This study will be an evaluation of the efficacy and safety of acupuncture to enhance the response rate of immunotherapy in advanced lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are 1. Does acupuncture heighten the response rate of immunotherapy in advanced lung cancer? 2. Does acupuncture heighten the …
