Integrating Palliative Care Education in Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD) imposes enormous daily challenges, especially at advanced stages, not just to patients but also to informal caregivers. Their needs are not fully addressed by disease-modifying treatments. A key strategy to improve their well-being is the early integration of …
High Flow Nasal Cannula Versus Non-Invasive Ventilation in Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease is a disabling disease that affects people usually after several years of smoke tobacco exposure and affects millions of patients worldwide. The disease is marked by multiples episode of worsening, termed exacerbations necessitating frequent hospitalizations. During these exacerbations, patients present breathless, and in the most severe …
Tele-rehabilitation to Maintain Function and Health: COPD Patients on Bike to Paris
This randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to investigate the effect of long-term, interactive home-based cycle-exercise on patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) after a COPD exacerbation requiring hospitalisation. The investigators aim to investigate if patients can maintain or improve the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation in terms of walking distance, …
Effect of Dual Bronchodilation With Umeclidinium/Vilanterol on Patients With COPD, Hyperinflation and Heart Failure
Double-blind, randomized, two-period crossover, placebo-controlled, single-center study, to determine the effect of umeclidinium/vilanterol 55/22 μg compared with placebo on the increase in left systolic chamber function during exercise in patients with COPD, lung hyperinflation and mild to moderate left ventricular dysfunction.
Passive Heat Therapy for People With COPD
People with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) often develop high blood pressure and heart disease due to their sedentary lifestyle and difficulty exercising. The investigators will test if heating can mimic the health benefits of exercise by monitoring the increase in leg blood-flow using ultrasound during a 45-minute hot-water footbath. …
Safety of Cultured Allogeneic Adult Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Pulmonary Diseases
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Pulmonary Diseases
Cardiopulmonary Adaptations to High-intensity Interval Training (HIIT) in COPD
The aim of this prospective randomised controlled trial in which the impact of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on pulmonay blood volume, pulmonary gas exchange during exercise, and lung tissue mass. The primary objective is to investigate whether 6 months of supervised HIIT leads to an increase in pulmonary blood …
Cardiovascular Assessment During COPD Exacerbation to Improve Diagnosis and Treatment
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 …
Eosinophil-guided Reduction of Inhaled Corticosteroids
Clinical trial on eosinophil-guided time-updated person-specific reduction of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) therapy and prophylactic azithromycin therapy in patients with severe or very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) receiving long-acting b-agonist (LABA) / long-acting muscarinic receptor antagonists (LAMA) / ICS treatment.
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 …
