Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States. Current treatments for COPD focus on inhaler therapies that do not address manifestations of the disease on other organ systems. Platelets, which are small blood cells that typically help with clotting, are also involved …
A randomized controlled trial of a food delivery dietary intervention targeting increased omega-3 intake to determine whether dietary modifications can improve Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) outcomes and attenuate the adverse effects of particulate matter on respiratory health. Investigators believe that study results will comprehensively address the impact of an …
The London COPD exacerbation (EXCEL) cohort builds on an established cohort started in 1995 and designed to study COPD exacerbations and their impact on health-status and disease progression.
The overall objective is to investigate the efficacy of targeted nutrient supplementation on daily physical activity level as well as generic health status in patients with COPD. Additionally the investigators aim to investigate the relative effect of targeted nutrient supplementation on the recovery after hospitalization for a COPD exacerbation. The …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease that continues to generate a great deal of research and this research must continue, both because it is not completely curable and because of the large patient population. The importance and benefits of exercise training in COPD patients are clear. One of …
This study aims to identify biomarkers associated with response to phage therapy for refractory bacterial infections. This includes mycobacteriophage treatment for patients with nontuberculous mycobacterial infections. Blood and airway samples will be obtained from follow up visits of patients with refractory bacterial infections that are considered for phage therapy. Samples …
Although COPD is basically a respiratory system disease, its effects are not limited to the respiratory system. In this context, one parameter affected in COPD patients is balance. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of assessing balance and incorporating it into treatment options such as pulmonary rehabilitation. In this context, …
The purpose of this research is to test a device being developed that can see how patients use oxygen therapy over a long period of time. This study will focus on developing a new display part called ROAM module which will be attached to your oxygen source. The display will …
The OBS19236 is a retrospective and prospective, non-interventional observational study in COPD patients treated with dupilumab as part of routine clinical care. It will follow-up about 350 to 500 participants over 36 months in up to 50 sites in France.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation, often exacerbated by postural abnormalities such as forward head posture (FHP). FHP can lead to significant alterations in breathing patterns, reducing the efficiency of respiratory muscles and impairing lung function. Patients with COPD and FHP frequently …
