Skeletal Muscle Function in Interstitial Lung Disease
Dyspnea (i.e. breathlessness) and exercise intolerance are common symptoms for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), yet it is not known why. It has been suggested that muscle dysfunction may contribute to dyspnea and exercise intolerance in ILD. Our study aims to: i) examine differences in the structure and function …
Physical Activity and Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease
Fibrotic interstitial lungs diseases (ILD) are a group of chronic and rare diseases characterized by an altered blood oxygenation in the lung, leading to dyspnea and physical limitation. Physical training is efficient to fight vicious circle of physical deconditioning observed in ILD. Eccentric cycling is an interesting modality of endurance …
Implementation of Home Monitoring in Patients with Pulmonary Fibrosis
The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of structurally replacing half of the outpatient clinic visits for patients with pulmonary fibrosis by home monitoring and video consultations on patient self-management and health(care) outcomes.
A Randomised Clinical Trial of a Digital Self-management Package for People With Interstitial Lung Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare REBUILD-SM (a purpose-built smartphone app and self-management package) with standard care in people with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The main question it aims to answer is: • Does REBUILD-SM improve health-related quality of life, symptoms, anxiety, self-efficacy and physical activity for …
Measurement of Viscoelastic Properties of Bronchopulmonary Secretions.
The study is experimental and aims to (a) compare the viscoelastic properties of bronchial secretions obtained in patients suffering from obstructive respiratory disease, and (b) to compare the viscoelastic properties of bronchial secretions obtained in patients before and after application of a respiratory physiotherapy or exercise as usually prescribed. After …
FCV Vs VCV in Obstructive and Asthmatic Patients
The goal of this physiological pilot study with a randomized crossover design is to study the effect of Flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) on the minute volume compared to Volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) in intubated patients with an exacerbation of their asthma or COPD. Our hypothesis is that FCV will results in a …
Integrating Palliative Care Education in Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD) imposes enormous daily challenges, especially at advanced stages, not just to patients but also to informal caregivers. Their needs are not fully addressed by disease-modifying treatments. A key strategy to improve their well-being is the early integration of …
Rehabilitation of People With Post-tuberculosis Lung Disease
Tuberculosis (TB) can leave numerous sequelae, where survivors experience a transition from an acute illness to living with a multifaceted chronic illness. Post-TB lung disease (PD-PTB) encompasses lung diseases and pathologies that occur after one or more episodes of TB, which can affect the patient's lung health and cause disabling …
Clinical Application Study of PET/CT for Differential Diagnosis of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
This study aims to explore the efficacy of Trop2, EpCAM-specific PET/CT imaging for noninvasive visualization of Trop2 or EpCAM expression levels in non-small cell lung cancer; and to explore the differences between novel target-specific PET/CT examinations and conventional 18F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of solid lung nodules.
Effect of HIgh-flow Therapy in Long-term Oxygen Therapy
This is a registry-based, randomized, controlled clinical trial of the effect of added high-flow oxygen therapy (using the device Lumis HFT) during one year in people with long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD).
