Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) tailored to meet the needs of adults living with cystic fibrosis (ACT with CF) is a newer form of talk therapy that has been shown to reduce anxiety \& depression and improve psychological flexibility, and value-based living. The investigators are now trying to find out …
There is no study to date that has evaluated the impact or effect of a Mediterranean diet in children with CF. The goal of this study would be to help provide better guidance around questions the investigators, as CF care providers continue to receive from patients and families about how …
The Investigators propose to study pediatric subjects who are diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) and patients with non-CF bronchiectasis, with the goal of developing markers of CF lung disease severity, progression, and therapy response. The Investigator's central hypothesis is that image-based markers can forecast pathophysiology prior to spirometric changes.
The STOP PEDS RCT is a multicenter, parallel, open label randomized controlled trial evaluating the long-term (one year) and short-term safety and efficacy of two antibiotic treatment strategies for the management of outpatient pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) in the pediatric CF population.
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder affecting the entire body and associated with respiratory exacerbations, impaired quality of life and reduced life expectancy. The therapeutic management of cystic fibrosis has been profoundly changed by the recent arrival of a combination of highly effective cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators, …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a specialized surgical technique called "Septum-guided Segmentectomy" for treating early-stage lung cancer located deep within the lung tissue.Standard surgery for lung cancer often involves removing an entire lung lobe (lobectomy), which can significantly reduce a patient's breathing …
This study involves the use of a medical device, the Creo Medical MicroBlate Flex instrument, to heat and destroy lung tumour cells using microwave energy (this is also called ablation). In this study, the investigators are investigating whether the ablation instrument can be used effectively to treat lung tumours or …
Prospective, 2-arm, randomised (2:1), multicentre, open-label clinical trial in patients with severe emphysema. The intervention arm will be treated with Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction in severe emphysema using thermoablation.The interventional treatment (bronchoscopic lung volume reduction) is compared with the usual conservative standard therapy (GOLD guidelines).
Respiratory viral infections can be a cause of significant illness, particularly in vulnerable individuals as seen in the COVID-19 pandemic. An underactive or overactive immune response can lead to ineffective resolution of inflammation after an infection, especially in people with airway diseases such as asthma. A better understanding of immune …
This protocol pertains specifically to the prospective lung squamous cell carcinoma pre-malignant lesion (PML) cohort that will form a primary study group for the Lung Pre-Cancer Atlas.
