Interest of Hypnosis When Setting up Non-invasive Ventilation in a Conscious Patient With COPD and/or Obesity With a BMI Greater Than 30, Suffering Fromacute Respiratory Distress in Adult Intensive Care
Discomfort during respiratory decompensation of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and/or obesity with a BMI greater than 30, in intensive care and the establishment of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is frequent and a source of failure. this therapy. Pharmacological treatments may be impossible due to the pathology, the …
A Clinical Study of Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Moderate-to-Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of exercise capacity and safety of iNO at doses of 10 ppm or 40 ppm for 2 hours per day after continuous treatment for one week, which is of great significance for finding safe and effective methods for treating COPD.
Rethinking Pulmonary Rehabilitation - a Three-arm Randomised Multicentre Trial
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is one of the cornerstones of care for people with COPD together with smoking cessation and medical treatment. Despite the compelling evidence for its benefits, pulmonary rehabilitation is delivered to less than 30% of patients with COPD. Access to PR are particularly challenging, and especially for those …
Hyper Polarized Xenon-129 MRI vs Xenon-133 Scintigraphy
Hyper polarized Xenon-129 MRI will be directly compared to a radioactive Xe-133 scintigraphy to detect defects in lung ventilation from airflow limitation. This study is conducted as a pilot study with intention to conduct a larger clinical trial.
Effects of Elastic Tape on Pulmonary Rehabilitation of Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Evaluate the effect of the use of elastic tape in chest wall and abdomen in the physical capacity, psychosocial distress levels, quality of life and anxiety, and depression symptoms of individuals with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation.
Mapping and Characterization of Alveolar Cells During Smoking and Chronic Obstructive Disease
To evaluate the regenerative capacities of mesenchymal cells composing the microenvironment of alveolar type 2 cells in a population of patients, undergoing thoracic surgery for suspected cancer, who are smokers with and without COPD compared to non-smokers patients
Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS) on Pulmonary Endothelial Function in COPD
The study objective is to determine whether an ICS added for 4 weeks to a baseline treatment with a Long-Acting Beta-adrenergic Agonist (LABA) and Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA) combination improves pulmonary vascular endothelial function as assessed by the vasodilator response to inhaled albuterol (endothelium-dependent vasodilation) in stable COPD patients treated …
Study on Impact of Maximal Strength Training in Patients With COPD
In the context of pulmonary rehabilitation of COPD patients, recent guidelines and metanalysis describe that Resistance Training (RT) can be successfully performed alone or in conjunction with Endurance Training (ET) without evidence of adverse events. Maximal Strength Training (MST) is a kind of RT typically performed at ~85-90% of 1RM …
Improving Participation in Pulmonary Rehabilitation Through Peer Support and Storytelling
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) affects approximately 16 million Americans and is characterized by recurrent exacerbations that lead to 1.5 million Emergency Department visits and 700,000 hospitalizations annually. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a structured program of exercise and self-management support that has been proven to relieve shortness of breath and …
Chronic Airway Disease, Mucus Rheology and Exacerbations
The main objective of this trial is to compare the exacerbation number over 12 months of follow-up between a group of patients with COPD treated according to standardized management (azithromycin prescribed in the event of severe sputum according to the CASA-Q score , standardized comparator arm) and a similar group …
