Clinical Study of the Pulsed Electric Field Ablation System in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This is a prospective, randomized, parallel group, sham-controlled, multicenter clinical trial. The objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of pulsed electric field ablation system manufactured by Suzhou Hengruihongyuan Medical Technology Co., Ltd. for the treatment of the symptoms of chronic bronchitis in adult COPD patients with moderate to …
Mindful-Breath for People With COPD
Individuals living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often suffer from stress and behavioral risks such as physical inactivity. In an attempt to promote healthy behaviors and overall wellbeing among this particular population, this study aims to develop and evaluate a personalized Mindful-Breath intervention combining telehealth technology and mindfulness for …
Canadian Consortium on Airway Mucus Occlusions in Asthma, COPD and Chronic Cough
Chronic lung diseases affect one in five Canadians, causing symptoms such as cough, breathlessness, and wheeze. Despite advancements in medical care, these conditions not only impact individuals and their close circles but also present substantial clinical and economic challenges at a national level. This grant is dedicated to addressing three …
Telehealth and Onsite Maintenance Exercise in COPD
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to compare telehealth and onsite supervised maintenance exercise program for adults with COPD. The specific aims of the study are: To compare 8-week supervised maintenance program delivered onsite and via tele-rehab with no maintenance for patients with COPD following discharge from traditional …
The Effects of Positive Airway Pressure on the Mucolytic Effects of NAC (TEAM)
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if positive pressure during inspiration will improve penetration of aerosolized N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) into airway mucus plugs in the lungs of patients with asthma or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does delivery of aerosolized …
DUET Versus Standard Interface for Hypercapnic COPD Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the new asymmetric nasal high flow interface with the conventional high flow nasal cannula in patients with COPD exacerbation. The main questions the study aims to answer are: • Does the use of the asymmetric interface lead to: A greater decrease …
APP-based Medical Device for Education and Training of Inhalation Technique
Primary aim: To investigate if app-based education and training of inhalation technique improves the rate of successful inhalation techniques compared with control group at 6-12 weeks follow-up visit. Secondary aims: To evaluate the feasibility, usability, and safety of the investigational during the study period. Study design: Two-armed, parallel-designed, individual single-blinded …
Evaluation of 3D Magnetic Resonance Spirometry: Comparison with Spirometry in Healthy Subjects and Patients with Respiratory Pathologies (asthma, COPD, Bilateral Lung Transplant)
Spirometry is now the gold standard technique for assessing lung function in humans. From the shape of a flow-volume curve measured while the patient, trained by the practitioner, performs forced breaths, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) can be deduced and the …
Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Undiagnosed Asthma or COPD: THE UCAP 2 TRIAL
Our research group has found that Canadians with undiagnosed asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have increased respiratory symptoms and worse health-related quality of life. The investigators recently developed and validated an on-line questionnaire to accurately identify these symptomatic, undiagnosed individuals. The investigators will advertise in the community asking …
Respiratory Strategies in COPD Patients With Persistent Hypercapnia Following Exacerbation
This multicenter, cross-over study aims to investigate the effects of two different respiratory strategies, the use of high flow nasal cannula (NHF) and the use of home mechanic ventilation (HMV), both associated with standard oxygen therapy, in patients with COPD and persistent hypercapnia following a severe acute exacerbation. The purpose …
