CHARM-COPD Program of Care
The investigators' goal for this project is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and actual usage of a program of care for patients with COPD recently discharged after an acute exacerbation. The program of care includes virtual pulmonary rehabilitation, integrated care, and remote clinical monitoring.
Long-term Effects of Endobronchial Valve Implantation on Cardiac Function and Skeletal Muscle Function
The goal of this type of study: clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of bronchial valve implantation on cardiac function and skeletal muscle function in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The main question it aims to answer are:evaluate the effect of bronchial valve implantation on cardiac function and skeletal muscle …
Comparison of Bronchodilator Response From Three Different Aerosol Delivery Methods in Patients With COPD Using Hyperpolarized Xe 129 MRI Ventilation Imaging
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare responses to bronchodilator treatment delivered by three different aerosol delivery methods in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main question it aims to answer is whether there are differences in lung ventilation following treatment with each of the three …
Tissue Regeneration in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease After an Exercise Intervention.
The main objective of this project is to identify mechanisms for lung regeneration in patients with COPD induced by exercise training. The hypothesis is that adjusted exercise training improves disease outcome in these patients by decrease remodelling processes linked to oxidative stress, inflammatory and/or immunological pathways in the lung. Along …
Comparison of Corticosteroids vs Placebo on Duration of Ventilatory Support During Severe Acute Exacerbations of COPD Patients in the ICU
The main objective of this study is to determine if the systemic (intravenous) administration of corticosteroids, as compared to placebo, increases the number of ventilator-free days (VFD) and alive at day 28 in COPD patients admitted to an ICU, a step-up unit or a respiratory care unit for an ACRF …
Functional Social Support in COPD Self-Management
This observational study aims to examine how different types of functional social support (emotional/informational, tangible, affectionate, and positive social interaction) predict self-management capacity among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The study includes a quantitative cross-sectional survey and qualitative semi-structured interviews (N=20) to explore barriers and facilitators to adequate …
Respiratory Support in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients
The hypothesis of this study is that any of 3 modalities of home non- invasive ventilation (NIV) compared to 'no NIV' (=hospital NIV) will reduce re-admission to hospital or death in COPD patients who remain persistently hypercapnic following an exacerbation requiring NIV.
Hypertonic Saline Inhalation for Mycobacterium Avium Complex Pulmonary Disease
The SALINE trial will investigate the effect of Hypertonic Saline inhalation plus best supportive care on burden of symptoms, clearance of mycobacteria and functional capacities in participants with Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease and compare the effect to treatment with best supportive care alone.
Exercise Program in Patients With Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease
1.objective Evaluation of effectiveness and safety of exercise intervention program for patients with non-tuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease 2. background Nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) is a chronic respiratory infection that generally affects individuals with structural lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and bronchiectasis and without structural lung …
Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a regimen of high-dose immunoablative therapy will demonstrate safety that is consistent or improved with other published regimens in SSc patients, while maintaining a treatment effect.
