The combined effects of transcutaneous electrical diaphragmatic stimulation (TEDS) and active cycle of breathing techniques (ACBTs) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) conducted as a randomized controlled trial at Gulab Devi Hospital, the study involved 50 participants aged 40 to 60 with mild to moderate COPD. Participants were …
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), characterized by persistent airflow limitation in the respiratory airways, is a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide. ReHub enables healthcare professionals to design therapeutic exercise programs for the treatment of COPD patients, as well as to analyze and monitor patient rehabilitation through the …
Chronic dyspnea is the most characteristic symptom of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), with intermittent increases during exercise and other events.Despite optimal standard therapy, episodic dyspnea is a common occurrence in COPD. Recently, the PEP buddy was developed which is an easy-to use, hands-free device that generates positive …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects 3.5 million people and is the third leading cause of death worldwide. Emphysema involves air retention in the lungs and is ultimately responsible for a major deterioration in the quality of life. Available drug treatments have moderate efficacy whereas surgical lung volume reduction can …
Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a systematic intervention that focuses on eliciting and strengthening a person's intrinsic motivation to change. MET is rooted in motivational interviewing principles, emphasizing empathy, autonomy, and the evocation of the patient's own motivations for change. The therapy typically involves several sessions where therapists help patients …
Assess quality of life of patients using prolonged oxygen therapy
The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility and potential for a positive impact of a graduated response for advanced COPD with Enhanced Support. The study is a randomized controlled trial of: systematic needs assessment advance care planning crossectoral virtual conferences. Researchers will compare quality of life and …
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
3.1 Introduction and rationale In 2020 an estimate of 562.700 people had Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in the Netherlands, resulting in 21.335 hospital admissions.\[1\] An acute exacerbation COPD (AECOPD) in combination with hospital admission is associated with high mortality and morbidity. \[2\] Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been very effective …
COPD is a preventable and treatable lung disease characterized by persistent and progressive airflow limitation. PRISm, on the other hand, is a spirometry pattern that does not meet COPD diagnostic criteria despite symptoms and functional impairments, but requires maintenance. PRISm can predispose to the development of COPD and exacerbations, and …
