Assessment of Breathing Pattern During NIV
COPD and OHS are respiratory conditions that disrupt normal breathing. Positive airway pressure, specifically Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV), has been shown to improve breathing and reduce symptoms in patients with these conditions. Regular use of NIV can lead to better symptom management, improved quality of life, and reduced use of healthcare …
Prehospital Non-invasive Ventilation for Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to test if treatment with prehospital Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), due to acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) based on in-hospital criteria, should be used in the prehospital setting. This is performed with the introduction …
Atorvastatin Effect on Reduction of COPD Exacerbations
It is a randomized, multicenter, prospective, double-blind, placebo controlled, interventional clinical trial that will be conducted in Poland, in about 12 Hospital Pulmonary Departments to evaluate the effectiveness of atorvastatin on the reduction of inflammation process in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and possible biomarkers for personalized treatment of …
Chair-based and Standard Exercise Programs in People With COPD
Patients who are diagnosed with COPD by a pulmonology specialist and referred to pulmonary rehabilitation will be included in the study. Cases that meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized and divided into two groups, standard exercise program group (SGr) and chair-based exercise. program group will be called (ChGr). While …
The Effect of Education and Reminder Messages on the Fatigue Level of Individuals With COPD
COPD is an important respiratory system disease that progresses with damage to the airways.Increased mucus secretion and thickening in the airways causes obstruction.This obstruction causes symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough, phlegm and wheezing.The most obvious problem that the emerging symptoms will cause for the patient is fatigue.Coping with …
The Effectiveness of Self-Management Education and Telephone Follow-up in Patient with COPD Exacerbation
According to the 2024 GOLD guidelines, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is defined as heterogeneous lung condition characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms (dyspnea, cough, sputum production, and/or exacerbations) due to abnormalities of the airways (bronchitis, bronchiolitis) and/or alveoli (emphysema) that cause persistent, often progressive, airflow obstruction. COPD is one of …
Reforça't: A Community, Social, and Healthcare Program for Patients With Cardiorespiratory Conditions Upon Hospital Discharge
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether an interdisciplinary, community-based intervention can reduce 30-day hospital readmissions and improve functional outcomes in patients aged 65 or older with chronic cardiac, respiratory, or mixed conditions following hospital discharge. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the …
Inhaler Trainer Efficacy Study
This will be a randomized, controlled, clinical trial. The investigators aim to determine the feasibility of and efficacy of the Inhaler Trainer Device for ongoing inhaler skill training. The research team will enroll 140 patients from the inpatient or outpatient setting from the University of Chicago Medicine over the course …
Identifying Right Ventricular Dysfunction in COPD Through Right Heart Catheterization, Imaging and Exercise
This study plans to learn more about heart function among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In particular, the investigators want to understand the different patterns of right ventricular response to pulmonary hypertension (high pressure in the lungs) during rest and exercise. By identifying patterns of right ventricular dysfunction, …
Thermotherapy Against Persistent Bacterial LUNG Infections
The aim of this study is to determine whether an intervention with frequent thermotherapy will be able to reduce the amount of colonizing bacteria in the bronchoalveolar lavage sample and eradicate the colonizing bacteria.
