An Evaluation of the AeriSeal System for CONVERTing Collateral Ventilation Status in Patients With Severe Emphysema
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, single-arm study planned to enroll 200 subjects with heterogeneous emphysema and collateral ventilation (CV) in the target lobe. Subjects will undergo instillation of AeriSeal Foam in the target lobe and subsequent assessment of CV status using Chartis Pulmonary Assessment System. Subjects with CVstatus will …
Impact of a Multimodal Intervention on Antibiotic Prescribing for Respiratory Infections in Primary Care
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), considered one of the greatest global threats by the WHO, justifies the development of initiatives to promote appropriate antibiotic use-especially in primary care, where most antibiotics in France are prescribed and where misuse remains common. We are proposing a cluster-randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of …
Digital Implementation of the German S3 Clinical Practice Guideline for Multimorbidity
The web application gp-multitool.de is a digital tool for implementing the German S3 clinical practice guideline for multimorbidity of the German Society of General Practitioners and Family Physicians in primary care. The tool enhances evidence-based and patient-centered care by assessing and providing information relevant for the primary care of this …
Promoting Goals-of-Care Discussions for Patients With Memory Problems and Their Caregivers
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve communication among clinicians, patients with memory problems, and their family members. We are testing a way to help clinicians have better conversations to address patients' goals for their healthcare. To do this, we created a simple, short guide called the "Jumpstart …
Validation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Algorithm
Under-diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is prevalent, with an estimated 75% of adults suffering from COPD in the US, without clinical recognition. Often, the first diagnosis of COPD comes with a flare or exacerbation. In one study, 34% of patients were first diagnosed during hospitalization for an exacerbation, …
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.
Time of Exercise Re-training With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an effective intervention for reducing hospital readmissions, secondary events, and mortality in patients with respiratory pathologies. The program should not be improved by introducing new subjects such as circadian rhythm.
Responses to Live Attenuated Influenza Virus (LAIV) in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
This study will determine the functional status of the nasal immune environment with LAIV exposure in COPD persons with frequent exacerbations (defined as individuals with two or more episodes of worsening in COPD symptoms requiring treatment with antibiotics and/or steroids in the prior 12 months) and COPD persons without frequent …
Oral Sildenafil for Exercise Capacity, Dyspnea and Cardiopulmonary Function in COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition characterized by airway obstruction. Patients with COPD experience significant shortness of breath on exertion. The mechanisms responsible for shortness of breath on exertion are well understood in moderate and severe COPD, but, are poorly understood in mild COPD where symptoms appear disproportionate …
Home High Flow Oxygen to Reduce Acute Exacerbation of COPD
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of home High Flow Oxygen for the reduction of severe exacerbation following admission for a severe exacerbation of COPD or death against standard oxygen therapy.
