Predictive Properties of the 6-Minute Stepper Test for Mortality in COPD
Retrospective study aimed to answer the following research questions : What are the predictive properties of the 6-minute stepper in COPD for 2-year mortality in individuals with COPD ? What are the predictive properties of the 6-minute stepper in COPD for 5-year mortality in invididuals with COPD ?
Investigation of the Respiratory Profile of Patients With Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (ASTHMA, COPD)
The primary aim of the OPTIPULM study is the evaluation of recorded pulmonary function curves and, based on them, the computer modelling of lung deposition for the individually used or potentially applicable inhalation drugs. The secondary aims include assessing the patients' inhalation device usage and providing recommendations for its optimization …
Exploring Novel Biomarkers for Emphysema Detection
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether voice or capnometry, alone or in combination with other (non invasive) biomarkers can be used to detect emphysema on chest CT-scan in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main question it aims to answer is: • Can a …
Zephyr Valve Japan Post-Marketing Surveillance
This is a multicenter, prospective, observational surveillance enrolling 140 consecutive patients with severe emphysema who are candidates for bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using Zephyr Endobronchial Valve at up to 20 centers across Japan and followed for 12 months.
Validation of the French Version of the QASCI in Caregivers of Patients With COPD
This study aims to validate the French version of the QASCI questionnaire, initially written and validated in Portuguese language by Hipolito et al., to assess caregiving burden in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The realization of this validation is significant on several levels. First, since COPD is a systemic condition, …
Research of Endobronchial Optical Coherence Tomography in Pre-COPD
The pre-stage of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (Pre-COPD) is challenging to diagnose. However, identifying Pre-COPD is a crucial step in the prevention and management of COPD. Endobronchial optical coherence tomography showed the value of diagnosis in Pre-COPD and COPD in previous researchs.
The Clear Conversations Project
Understanding health information can be difficult. This means some people struggle to know how to manage their health. Also, people may not know what health services to use or when to use them. This can lead to poorer health. It is therefore important health workers can communicate information clearly. This …
Prevalence of Sarcopenic Obesity in COPD
The goal of this observational study is to the purpose is to apply of ESPEN/EASO criteria for the diagnosis of sarcopenic obesity and calculation of OS prevalence in a sample of COPD patients. In addition, this study want to evaluate the impact of sarcopenic obesity on the respiratory function of …
Cardiac Assessment and Takotsubo-stunning Among COPD-exacerbations In-Hospital
The goal of this prospective observational study is to investigate to what extent acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AE-COPD) triggers Takotsubo-stunning, and how this affects the outcome for these patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is cumulative incidence of Takotsubo-stunning in patients hospitalized for …
Health Literacy, Physical and Cognitive Function, Health-related Behaviors, and Quality of Life in COPD
Health literacy is important for controlling disease progression and living a healthy life with illness. High health literacy is associated with higher cognitive performance and lower health-related quality of life. Physical, psychological, and social impairments are seen in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Studies investigating the relationship between health literacy …
