Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), , secondary to smoking, is a major public health issue with very high direct and indirect costs. The impact on the health system of undiagnosed patients, up to 70% of patients, is increasingly documented. However, systematic spirometry screening remains controversial among smokers in the absence …
This research is being done to test if a drug called omalizumab can help people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and allergies. Each participant will be in the study for about 16 months, including 1-3 months of screening, 12 months of receiving the study drug at a clinic, and …
Frailty is common among older patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is associated with poor functional outcomes and increased health risks. This study aims to determine the prevalence of frailty and to evaluate the effects of the Vivifrail exercise program on physical performance, activities of daily living, and …
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of BGF MDI compared with placebo MDI on cardiac and lung function when administered in participants diagnosed with COPD and hyperinflation.
In some patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) the breathlessness is caused by hyperinflation of the lungs. This causes difficulty breathing air out and makes it harder to breath in new air and limits the movement of the diaphram. The diaphragm is the muscle used for breathing between the …
The dNerva Lung Denervation System is one-time treatment intended to improve breathing in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients on standard medical care. The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of the Nuvaira Lung Denervation System in the treatment of COPD.
This research will be conducted using a pre-test and post-test control group experimental design to evaluate the effect of telenursing intervention on oral health in individuals with COPD.
This interventional study aims to investigate the acute effects of different types of exercise on cerebral and peripheral muscle oxygenation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) will be used simultaneously to measure oxygenation changes in the prefrontal cortex and the …
Dysfunctional breathing is a common and clinically relevant problem in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), contributing to increased dyspnea perception, reduced exercise tolerance, and impaired quality of life. The Nijmegen Questionnaire (NQ) is a widely used symptom-based instrument for screening dysfunctional breathing; however, a validated Turkish version for …
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a serious lung condition and the third leading cause of death worldwide. People with COPD have sudden and distressing flare-ups (exacerbations). These can be triggered by infections or occur without a clear cause. Flare-ups often lead to hospital admission, can cause a lasting …
