The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility and potential for a positive impact of a graduated response for advanced COPD with Enhanced Support. The study is a randomized controlled trial of: systematic needs assessment advance care planning crossectoral virtual conferences. Researchers will compare quality of life and …
In some patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) the breathlessness is caused by hyperinflation of the lungs. This causes difficulty breathing air out and makes it harder to breath in new air and limits the movement of the diaphram. The diaphragm is the muscle used for breathing between the …
Multicentre, prospective, non-randomised, single-arm, open label, mechanistic study to investigate the mechanism of action of BGF 160 on ventilation pattern complexity and variability
3.1 Introduction and rationale In 2020 an estimate of 562.700 people had Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in the Netherlands, resulting in 21.335 hospital admissions.\[1\] An acute exacerbation COPD (AECOPD) in combination with hospital admission is associated with high mortality and morbidity. \[2\] Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been very effective …
COPD is a preventable and treatable lung disease characterized by persistent and progressive airflow limitation. PRISm, on the other hand, is a spirometry pattern that does not meet COPD diagnostic criteria despite symptoms and functional impairments, but requires maintenance. PRISm can predispose to the development of COPD and exacerbations, and …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug JKN2403 works to treat moderate-to-severe COPD in adults. It will also learn about the safety and pharmacokinetic characteristics of drug JKN2403. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does drug JKN2403 reduce the incidence of AECOPD or improve …
COPD affects 5 to 8% of the population in France. The disease consists of inflammation of the large and small airways causing permanent obstruction of the airways and symptoms such as dyspnea, cough and sputum that worsens over time. Among all COPD patients, 40% complain of sleep disorders. Polysomnography data …
The trial aims to evaluate whether the Airvo 3 device in OptiO2 mode can maintain patients' SpO2 levels within the target range better than manual oxygen titration in hospitalized COPD patients with hypoxemia/respiratory distress.
Rationale: Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using endobronchial valves (EBV) has emerged as a viable treatment option for eligible patients with severe emphysema. In all studies conducted so far, exercise capacity has only been measured using the 6-minute walk distance test (6MWT). It is known that patients with COPD frequently experience …
The investigators have developed a new counselling service that focuses on the emotional distress experienced by people living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (\COPD\). The new programme is led by an advanced practice nursing (\APN\) team. Other professionals are involved in the programme, such as medical staff and physiotherapists. The …
