Balance Training in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The aim of the study will be to verify whether the addition of an exercise program aimed to improve balance can reduce the risk of falling in subjects with COPD over 80 years of age compared to the standard rehabilitation program. Patients will be randomly assigned in two groups (intervention …
Effects of L-arginine and Liposomial Vitamin C on Severe Copd Patients Undergoing Pulmonary Rehabilitation.
The hypothesis that is being tested is that the supplementation of L-arginine plus Vitamin C to multidisciplinary pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) in patients with a previous diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic respiratory failure can have a favorable influence on fatigue and on clinical indicators related to endothelial …
Home-based Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This project aims to assess the short-term effectiveness and responsiveness of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) program (reabilitAR) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is also an aim to establish the minimal clinically important differences for PR in patients with COPD for a novel incremental step test …
Rehabilitation Training With Music-support & Exercise Tolerance in COPD and CRF Patients.
Therapeutic-rehabilitative interventions supported by music can be considered important resources in many clinical contexts. Some studies report the improvement of psychological (i.e. anxiety) and physiological parameters such for example, dyspnea, blood pressure, quality of life, sleep disturbances, etc. through voice, singing, exercise with wind instruments, and sometimes listening to music. …
The Effect of Interval Exercise on Functional Outcomes in Veterans With COPD and OSA
The term "Overlap Syndrome" (OS) is used to describe the presence of both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in a single patient. Due to premature aging, patients with OS are prone to developing functional decline up to 20 years earlier than the general population. The …
The Acute Cardiorespiratory Response to Blood-flow Restricted Versus Traditional Exercise Training Regimens (CaRe BFR)
The investigators hypothesize that BFR exercise regimens result in a different acute cardiorespiratory response pattern compared to traditional exercise regimens. Furthermore, the investigators hypothesize that these patterns differ between healthy participants and participants with COPD. Regarding secondary objective, the investigators hypothesize that BFR results in lower blood pressure responses compared …
Impact of Long-acting Bronchodilator- -Corticoid Inhaled Therapy on Ventilation, Lung Function and Breathlessness
Multicentre, prospective, non-randomised, single-arm, open label, mechanistic study to investigate the mechanism of action of BGF 160 on ventilation pattern complexity and variability
Effect of Combined Endurance Training on ADL and Walking in COPD Patients
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic disease with related exercise intolerance and marked disability due to symptoms such as dyspnea and fatigue. Effort intolerance and exercise-induced symptoms cause marked impairment in completing activities of daily living (ADL). Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), which has exercise as a major component, is …
Sputum-guided Treatment With Comprehensive Care Management in COPD - A Randomized-controlled Trial
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung condition affecting 1 in 6 Canadians and does not have a cure. Flare-ups of COPD are the most common reason someone goes to hospital in Canada. This is made worse because within 30-days of having a flare-up, 1 in 5 patients will …
Effect of Ensifentrine on Sputum Markers of Inflammation in COPD
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period cross-over study of nebulized ensifentrine (3 mg) or placebo administered BID for two 8-week Treatment Periods. All participants with receive both ensifentrine and placebo during participation. There are 7 in-clinic visits over a total duration of up to 24 weeks participation.
