Under-diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is prevalent, with an estimated 75% of adults suffering from COPD in the US, without clinical recognition. Often, the first diagnosis of COPD comes with a flare or exacerbation. In one study, 34% of patients were first diagnosed during hospitalization for an exacerbation, …
A Clinical Study Based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Lungs to Assess the Efficacy of Thermal Vapor Ablation and Pulmonary Nodule Ablation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease After Surgery. The efficacy of hot steam ablation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was evaluated using the innovative MRI sequence PREFUL\_MRI, and …
This prospective observational cohort study aims to prospectively evaluate and validate the Clinical Load, Exchange, Ability of Respiration, and Reserve (CLEAR) model for predicting sustained ventilatory liberation in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV). Two parallel cohorts will be …
The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infusion of fully characterized clonally derived fetal mesenchymal stem cells (cfMSCs) for the control of severe symptoms associated with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
COPD is one of the most life-threatening pulmonary diseases. According to the World Health Organization, it is expected to rise to the third leading cause of death by 2030. Smoking is the most significant contributing factor. COPD reduces lung volumes and causes dyspnea. Over time, respiratory muscle weakness develops, leading …
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of allogeneic human UC-MSC to treat stage E Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). All participants in this study already receive standard treatment for COPD, which includes triple inhaled medications with LABA, LAMA and ICS. We hypothesize that UC-MSCs will improve COPD …
Despite the globally varying high prevalence rate of the PRISm phenotype, there are no guidelines for its diagnostic evaluation and management. Further studies are needed on appropriate approaches for individuals with PRISm to improve respiratory symptoms and prognosis. As research continues to evolve, PRISm needs to be recognized as a …
This study is designed to provide information regarding how to improve pulmonary rehabilitation for persons with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Pulmonary rehabilitation is an exercise program for COPD patients that is recommended and benefits some, but not all, patients. The question being studied in this trial is whether during …
Acute exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are a major source of morbidity and mortality for patients and cost to the society. In case of acute respiratory failure with hypercapnia and acidosis, Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV) is preferred as a first line treatment. NIV failures are not uncommon, from …
In the context of pulmonary rehabilitation of COPD patients, recent guidelines and metanalysis describe that Resistance Training (RT) can be successfully performed alone or in conjunction with Endurance Training (ET) without evidence of adverse events. Maximal Strength Training (MST) is a kind of RT typically performed at \~85-90% of 1RM …
