Mechanical Properties of Peripheral and Accessory Respiratory Muscles in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients
The biomechanical properties of accessory respiratory muscles and peripheral muscles of COPD and healthy subjects will be measured and compared with the MyotonPro device.
Effects of Eccentric Exercise Training in Patients With COPD
The goal of this study is to design eccentric exercise strategies for COPD patients to comprehensively improve their cardiopulmonary/muscular fitness, immune and hemorheological functions, and quality of life, thereby improving the prognosis of their disease.
Evaluation of Safety and Effectiveness of TLD Radiofrequency Ablation in the Treatment of COPD
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Targeted Lung Denervation (TLD) for COPD patients using the lung denervation radiofrequency ablation device.
Sputum-guided Treatment With Comprehensive Care Management in COPD - A Randomized-controlled Trial
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung condition affecting 1 in 6 Canadians and does not have a cure. Flare-ups of COPD are the most common reason someone goes to hospital in Canada. This is made worse because within 30-days of having a flare-up, 1 in 5 patients will …
The Acute Cardiorespiratory Response to Blood-flow Restricted Versus Traditional Exercise Training Regimens (CaRe BFR)
The investigators hypothesize that BFR exercise regimens result in a different acute cardiorespiratory response pattern compared to traditional exercise regimens. Furthermore, the investigators hypothesize that these patterns differ between healthy participants and participants with COPD. Regarding secondary objective, the investigators hypothesize that BFR results in lower blood pressure responses compared …
Sonographic Diaphragm Function in AECOPD
The study will be conducted as a single-center, prospective cohort study. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the responsiveness of sonographic parameters of diaphragm to detect change in Borg score for dyspnea during hospitalisation for AECOPD without respiratory acidosis.
Heterogeneity of Lung Ventilation Determined by EIT During PFT in Patients With PRISM
To evaluate the demographic characteristics of PRISm population in patients with pulmonary function tests recommended by outpatient physicians. To investigate whether EIT can identify spatial and temporal heterogeneity of lung ventilation in individuals with PRISm during pulmonary function testing. To investigate the distribution patterns of lung ventilation in individuals with …
Bronchoscopic EmphysemA Treatment in THE NetherLands
Rationale: New bronchoscopic treatments for emphysema have shown promise in clinical trials, improving lung function, exercise capacity and possibly survival and are now being adopted by a number of centres in the Netherlands. It is important to ensure that the benefits seen in clinical trials are in fact reflected in …
Effect of Combined Endurance Training on ADL and Walking in COPD Patients
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic disease with related exercise intolerance and marked disability due to symptoms such as dyspnea and fatigue. Effort intolerance and exercise-induced symptoms cause marked impairment in completing activities of daily living (ADL). Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), which has exercise as a major component, is …
Predictive Properties of the 6-Minute Stepper Test for Mortality in COPD
Retrospective study aimed to answer the following research questions : What are the predictive properties of the 6-minute stepper in COPD for 2-year mortality in individuals with COPD ? What are the predictive properties of the 6-minute stepper in COPD for 5-year mortality in invididuals with COPD ?
