Probiotics in Pulmonaty Rehabilitation for COPD
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.
Bronchodilators and Lung Mechanics During Exercise in COPD
Bronchodilators are medications that open the bronchi to help patients with COPD to breathe better. It is still not known exactly how this effect improves shortness of breath in people with COPD. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether bronchodilators lower resistance in the smallest airways in …
The Efficacy of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol/Umeclidinium Compared With Vilanterol/Umeclidinium in Reducing Air Trapping and Airway and Blood Cytokine Levels in COPD
This study aims to demonstrate the effects of triple therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA) and dual bronchodilators (LAMA/LABA) on air trapping in the lungs' COPD patients and inflammatory mediators
Evaluation of the Paramedic Evaluation for Acute COPD Exacerbation
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a serious lung condition that affects millions of people in the United States. Each year, it leads to about 150,000 deaths, nearly 900,000 emergency room visits, and 700,000 hospital stays. When COPD symptoms suddenly get worse-called an exacerbation-it can seriously harm a person's quality …
COPD Resources, Education, and Activity Designed for You Study
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 …
Ultrasound of the Diaphragm Excursion Ratio as Physiological Biomarker in Acute Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
3.1 Introduction and rationale In 2020 an estimate of 562.700 people had Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in the Netherlands, resulting in 21.335 hospital admissions.\[1\] An acute exacerbation COPD (AECOPD) in combination with hospital admission is associated with high mortality and morbidity. \[2\] Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been very effective …
Mathematical Analysis of Signals and Clinical Parameters Provided by Non-invasive Home Ventilation Devices
This study will look at people with COPD who use a home breathing machine called non-invasive ventilation (NIV). NIV machines collect information about your breathing, such as air flow, pressure, and mask leaks. Researchers want to use a computer program, called artificial intelligence (AI), to study this information. The goal …
Comparison of Patients With COPD and PRISM
COPD is a preventable and treatable lung disease characterized by persistent and progressive airflow limitation. PRISm, on the other hand, is a spirometry pattern that does not meet COPD diagnostic criteria despite symptoms and functional impairments, but requires maintenance. PRISm can predispose to the development of COPD and exacerbations, and …
Effect of Sublingual Fentanyl on Breathlessness in COPD
There is actually no physiologic or clinical data in the literature to clearly define the potential benefits and side effects of sublingual fentanyl in patients with COPD. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that sublingual fentanyl will improve exercise capacity and dyspnea control in severe …
Closed Loop Oxygen Control in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients Treated With Nasal High Flow in the Hospital
The trial aims to evaluate whether the Airvo 3 device in OptiO2 mode can maintain patients' SpO2 levels within the target range better than manual oxygen titration in hospitalized COPD patients with hypoxemia/respiratory distress.
