Reducing Chronic Breathlessness in Adults by Following a Self-guided, Internet Based Supportive Intervention (SELF-BREATHE)
Background Some health conditions make breathing difficult and uncomfortable. When this happens every day, it is called chronic breathlessness. Over 3 million people living with heart and lung disease have chronic breathlessness in the UK. Breathlessness is very difficult for patients themselves and their families, resulting in disability and feelings …
Comparison of Imaging Quality Between Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography (SPCCT) and Dual Energy Computed Tomography (DECT)
This pilot study wants to determine to which extent SPCCT allows obtaining images with improved quality and diagnostic confidence when compared to standard Dual Energy CT (DECT), both with and without contrast agent injection. Depending on the anatomical structures/organs to be visualized during CT examinations, different scanning protocols are performed …
The Role of Laryngopharyngeal Reflux in IPF
The primary objective of this study is to show that the Supraglottic Index (SGI) is an easily-collected index that accurately identifies the presence and severity of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPF) in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
19F MRI in Healthy Children and Children With Mild Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease
This study capitalizes on the emerging technology of 19F MRI, using conventional 'thermally' polarized perfluorinated gas (perfluoropropane, or PFP) mixed with oxygen and studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize ventilation. This technique has not been studied in children. Children and adolescents (6-17 years old) with cystic fibrosis (CF) …
Longitudinal Observational Study on the Course of Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease in Patients Following Newborn Screening
The purpose of this study is to further characterize early CF lung disease in newborns, infants and toddlers with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Glucose Monitoring in Youth With Cystic Fibrosis During Pulmonary Exacerbations
The goal of this study is to investigate the prevalence of dysglycemia with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) obtained during pulmonary exacerbations, both outpatient and inpatient, in youth with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Genetic Polymorphisms in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
The purposes of this study are: to determine if there are specific genetic traits that might explain why patients have developed pulmonary fibrosis; to determine if specific genetic traits account for differing patterns of inflammation and scar tissue that has formed in the patient's lungs.
The Genetics of Pulmonary Fibrosis
This study seeks to screen first degree family members of people with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) for the earliest signs of lung fibrosis.
Mechanisms of Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis
This a prospective, longitudinal study of first-degree family members of patients diagnosed with familial interstitial pneumonia (FIP). FIP is the familial form of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which is defined as 2 or more bloodline relatives which have a diagnosis of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP). The most common form of …
Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Community Registry
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) results from a diverse group of health conditions and affects the lives of patients (including those who are post lung transplant), caregivers and family members. The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Community Registry will offer an online portal where participants can self-enroll and directly contribute information about their experience …
