Title: The Impact of Pulmonary Rehabilitation Conducted in Therapeutic Salt Chambers on the Clinical Condition of Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Background and Rationale: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive respiratory disorder that significantly reduces patients' quality of life and functional capacity. In the search for supportive …
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period cross-over study of nebulized ensifentrine (3 mg) or placebo administered BID for two 8-week Treatment Periods. All participants with receive both ensifentrine and placebo during participation. There are 7 in-clinic visits over a total duration of up to 24 weeks participation.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one of the leading causes of death in the US, disproportionately affects low socioeconomic communities. While few interventions effectively modify the course of COPD and improve outcomes, pulmonary rehabilitation is the one notable exception. However, implementation of this resource-intensive program in real-life settings, and in …
The primary aim of the OPTIPULM study is the evaluation of recorded pulmonary function curves and, based on them, the computer modelling of lung deposition for the individually used or potentially applicable inhalation drugs. The secondary aims include assessing the patients' inhalation device usage and providing recommendations for its optimization …
This study aims to investigate various aspects of patients with chronic respiratory diseases undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation supplemented with probiotics. The focus will be on clinical physiological responses, functional performance, respiratory status assessments, nutritional status evaluations, body composition analyses, and biochemical blood parameters, with a primary emphasis on the anti-inflammatory response.
Although COPD self-management treatment programs are effective in reducing COPD-related hospitalizations and increasing quality of life, there is a limited understanding of 'how and why' they work. The proposed research will use an engineering-inspired study design to identify effective COPD self-management treatment components and guide its 'real world' implementation. The …
The purpose of this study is to obtain new knowledge regarding screening for COPD. This study will use a participant's cancer screening CT scans performed as part of routine health care among current and former smokers at risk for COPD to identify participants who have had a spirometry or will …
ERASE PH-COPD is a randomized double-blind study, with 2 parallel groups. Patients with severe pulmonary hypertension due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, will be randomly assigned to receive Tadalafil orally or placebo.
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an effective intervention for reducing hospital readmissions, secondary events, and mortality in patients with respiratory pathologies. The program should not be improved by introducing new subjects such as circadian rhythm.
The project will be pursued in our respiratory, autonomic nervous system physiology laboratory (Respiratory, autonomic nervous system physiology laboratory, Department of Pneumology and Intensive Care Medicine, RWTH Aachen University Hospital; Head of Department: Professor Michael Dreher). Overactivity of the sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) axis with "centrally" increased heart rate and …
