The Effect of Treatment of Emphysema With Endobronchial Valves on the Diaphragm Mobility
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 …
Activity, Balance and COPD (ABCOPD)
This research project incorporates a series of studies to investigate the relationship between physical performance (e.g. tests of strength, balance and walking distance) and physical activity (activity measured in day to day life) in people with COPD and other chronic lung diseases.
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.
Impact of Fixed TRIple Therapy With Beclometasone/Formoterol/Glycopyrronium DPI (Trimbow® in NEXThaler Device) in Chronic Obstructive PulmoNary Disease in rEal-world Settings: Health-related Quality of Life Patient' eXpectations and characterisTics: the TriNEXT Study
This is an observational, prospective, multicentric, cohort study conducted in France to evaluate the QoL in COPD patients treated with TRIMBOW NEXThaler 88/5/9 in a routine clinical practice setting. Patients enrolled in this study will be patients diagnosed with a COPD with a ratio of post-bronchodilator (salbutamol 400 μg) forced …
Investigation of the Respiratory Profile of Patients With Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (ASTHMA, COPD)
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 …
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.
Predicting Acute Exacerbations of COPD Using Wearable Devices and Remote Monitoring Technology With AI/ML Models
This study is aimed to collect real-time physiological data using two wearable devices (a biometric ring and a biometric wristband), daily lung mechanical measurements by a handheld oscillometer, and participant-reported symptoms in patients with COPD remotely from their home environment. The data will be used to train and validate artificial …
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 ?
NT-proBNP Levels During Triple Therapy With Formoterol/Glycopyrrolate/Budesonide in Patients With COPD.
Observational prospective study to evaluate serum NT-proBNP levels in a population of COPD patients three months after the iniation of triple inhaled formoterol/glycopyrrolate/budesonide therapy.
Sympathetic Nerve Activity Predictors in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
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 …
