The goal of this non-pharmacologic interventional study is to learn if Oscillatory Positive Expiratory Pressure (OPEP) therapy can improve disease impact and respiratory system dynamics in patients with COPD. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is OPEP therapy able to improve the impact of cough symptoms as measured …
Study Description: My Lung Health Coach (MLHC) is a virtual COPD education and self-management support program delivered through one-on-one sessions with a Certified Respiratory Educator (CRE) over 12 weeks. It includes six sessions that cover essential COPD topics such as: Basic COPD knowledge, Smoking cessation, Medications (inhalers, oxygen), Physical activity, …
Airway resistance will be measured using the forced oscillation technique (FOT). The parameters Rrs, Xrs, and ∆Xrs will be compared before and after a pulmonary rehabilitation cycle at moderate altitude. Additionally, the differences between low and moderate altitude will also be examined.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disorder that significantly impacts respiratory function and quality of life. As COPD patients often experience symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and anxiety, non-pharmacological interventions like Benson's Relaxation Technique and Tai Chi are gaining attention for their potential benefits in managing these …
The combined effects of transcutaneous electrical diaphragmatic stimulation (TEDS) and active cycle of breathing techniques (ACBTs) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) conducted as a randomized controlled trial at Gulab Devi Hospital, the study involved 50 participants aged 40 to 60 with mild to moderate COPD. Participants were …
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), characterized by persistent airflow limitation in the respiratory airways, is a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide. ReHub enables healthcare professionals to design therapeutic exercise programs for the treatment of COPD patients, as well as to analyze and monitor patient rehabilitation through the …
Chronic dyspnea is the most characteristic symptom of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), with intermittent increases during exercise and other events.Despite optimal standard therapy, episodic dyspnea is a common occurrence in COPD. Recently, the PEP buddy was developed which is an easy-to use, hands-free device that generates positive …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects 3.5 million people and is the third leading cause of death worldwide. Emphysema involves air retention in the lungs and is ultimately responsible for a major deterioration in the quality of life. Available drug treatments have moderate efficacy whereas surgical lung volume reduction can …
Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a systematic intervention that focuses on eliciting and strengthening a person's intrinsic motivation to change. MET is rooted in motivational interviewing principles, emphasizing empathy, autonomy, and the evocation of the patient's own motivations for change. The therapy typically involves several sessions where therapists help patients …
