Influence of Frailty on Cardiovascular Events and Mortality in Patients With COPD.
Observational study on the influence of frailty on cardiovascular risk in COPD.
Role of Oral Care in Prevention of Nosocomial Pneumonia Among COPD Patients
Poor dental hygiene has been linked to respiratory pathogen colonization in ICU patients. Therefore, respiratory pathogens tend to colonize dental plaque and oral mucosa in these populations. Therefore, strategies to eliminate respiratory pathogens from the oral cavity may improve oral hygiene and decrease the development of nosocomial pneumonia.
Efficacy and Safety of Cold Atmospheric Plasma Combined With Endovascular Intervention for Diabetic Foot Ulcers With Lower Extremity Arterial Occlusion
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) combined with endovascular intervention can accelerate wound healing and improve safety outcomes in patients aged 18 to 80 years with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) complicated by lower extremity arterial occlusion. The main questions it aims to …
Investigating the Impact of Cold Atmospheric Plasma Treatment on Wound Healing at Cannulation Sites in Patients Following Extracorporeal Life Support
This study aims to evaluate a new wound treatment called cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) for patients receiving extracorporeal life support (ECLS). Patients on extracorporeal life support (ECLS) often develop wounds at the sites where tubes are inserted, and these wounds can be difficult to heal and prone to infection. cold …
Neurocognitive and Health Impact of Sleep Apnea in Elderly Veterans With Comorbid COPD
Cognitive dysfunction in the aging Veteran population is a growing health concern in the Veterans Health System. It is not known whether OSA coexisting with COPD will enhance the risk for cognitive dysfunction. The investigators sought to investigate whether these two highly prevalent diseases, that often co-exist as the 'Overlap …
Study Of Cold Cap Therapy For Prevention of Hairloss in Pediatric Patients Receiving Chemotherapy For Non-Malignant Indications and Solid Tumors
This study is being done to see if the Paxman scalp cooling device can prevent hair loss in pediatric patients receiving chemotherapy for non-cancerous conditions or solid tumors. Primary Objective To assess the safety and feasibility of the use of a scalp cooling device in pediatric and young adult patients …
Are There Benefits of Using Energy-based Devices for Opportunistic Salpingo-oophorectomy During Vaginal Hysterectomy Compared to a Standard Cold Approach?
This study compares two methods for removing the fallopian tubes and ovaries during vaginal hysterectomy for pelvic organ prolapse. One method uses an energy-based surgical device called LigaSure Maryland, which seals blood vessels using electrical energy. The other method is the standard surgical approach, which involves clamping, cutting, and suturing …
Efficacy and Safety of Cold Atmospheric Plasma Combined With Endovascular Intervention in Patients With Diabetic Foot Ulcers and Lower Extremity Arterial Occlusion
Critical limb ischemia is the end-stage manifestation of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), frequently presenting as ischemic rest pain, ulceration, or gangrene. Diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for lower extremity arterial occlusion, with infrapopliteal arteries most commonly affected. Patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have a high prevalence of …
Effect of Home Based Pulmonary Rehabilitation on Exacerbation and Hospital Admission in Severe COPD
The study is a randomized controlled trial. The cases will be divided into two groups as the Homespirometer group and the control group. Breathing exercises, aerobic exercise and peripheral muscle strengthening will be performed in both groups. A home-type spirometer will be given to the homespirometer group and it will …
Emotional-distress-based Integrated Care Programme in Patients With an Acute Exacerbation of COPD
The investigators have developed a new counseling service that focuses on the emotional distress experienced by people living with COPD. The service has been specially developed for patients who have experienced a deterioration in their lung condition (known as an acute exacerbation of COPD). The new program is led by …
