SWEEP: Shuttle Walking Test for Exercise Evaluation in Pulmonary Resection
This is a prospective observational study that evaluates whether the Shuttle Walking Test (SWT) can predict postoperative symptoms, particularly dyspnea, in patients with chronic respiratory diseases undergoing lung resection. Currently, tools such as DLCO or cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) are used to assess surgical risk and exercise capacity before lung …
Immune Cells Role in Lung Cancer and Their Use in Anticancer Immunotherapies and Inflammatory Lung Disease
This study aims to better understand the role of immune system cells in lung diseases such as lung cancer, sarcoidosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The investigators are studying how these immune cells can sometimes help the body defend itself, but in other cases may contribute to cancer growth …
Cardiovascular Assessment and Treatment During COPD Exacerbation to Improve Diagnosis and Outcomes
This is a research study involving patients hospitalized for COPD flare-ups. Patients will be randomly assigned to two groups: one group will only see a pulmonologist (lung doctor), and the other group will also be seen by a cardiologist (heart doctor) during their hospital stay. Both groups will fill out …
To Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Inhaled Corticosteroids Combined With Bronchodilators and Programmed Death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) Inhibitor Plus Platinum-based Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma Complicated With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled corticosteroids combined with bronchodilators and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor plus platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
Menthol for Dyspnea Relief in Health and COPD
Menthol inhalation (MI) is a novel and promising treatment option for acute relief of dyspnea, however, the underlying ventilatory and/or neural related mechanisms for this relief in symptoms remain unknown. The overall aim of this research project is to systematically examine the mechanisms of dyspnea relief from MI in healthy …
Postoperative Analgesia Between Paravertebral Block and Epidural Block in Esophageal Surgery
Prevention of postoperative pain is essential for the recovery of esophageal surgery. Epidural analgesia is a traditional and standard perioperative pain management for these patients. Beneficials of epidural analgesia have been widely established. However, there are still several potential disadvantages such as perioperative hypotension, failure of administration, rare but serious …
Ultrasound and Respiratory Physiological Signals in Lung Diseases
The use of lung ultrasound is instrumental in the evaluation of many chest pathologies and its ability to detect pleuro-pulmonary pathology is widely accepted. However, the use of ultrasound to explore the state of the peripheral lung parenchyma, when the organ is still aerated, is a relatively new application. Horizontal …
Effects of Pulmonary Diseases and Their Treatment on Cardiac Function
While the bidirectional relationship between the lung and the right heart are well studied, the cardiopulmonary interactions between the lung and the left heart are largely unresearched and not well understood. However, in recent years, there is a growing evidence that partially explains the bidirectional interaction between COPD and left …
Functional Improvement in OSA and COPD With a Telehealth LifeStyle and Exercise Intervention
The investigators will conduct a Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation study to test an integrated telehealth intervention among 400 overweight and obese patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The investigators will include eligible participants receiving primary care at one of five Department of Veterans Affairs …
Post-marketing Phase 4 Safety & Tolerability Study of Breztri aerosphereTM in Indian Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The purpose of this study is to observe the safety and tolerability of Breztri aerosphereTM as maintenance treatment in Indian patients with moderate to severe COPD.
