Respiratory Support in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients
The hypothesis of this study is that any of 3 modalities of home non- invasive ventilation (NIV) compared to 'no NIV' (=hospital NIV) will reduce re-admission to hospital or death in COPD patients who remain persistently hypercapnic following an exacerbation requiring NIV.
Time of Exercise Re-training With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an effective intervention for reducing hospital readmissions, secondary events, and mortality in patients with respiratory pathologies. The program should not be improved by introducing new subjects such as circadian rhythm.
Responses to Live Attenuated Influenza Virus (LAIV) in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
This study will determine the functional status of the nasal immune environment with LAIV exposure in COPD persons with frequent exacerbations (defined as individuals with two or more episodes of worsening in COPD symptoms requiring treatment with antibiotics and/or steroids in the prior 12 months) and COPD persons without frequent …
Effects of Elastic Tape on Pulmonary Rehabilitation of Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Evaluate the effect of the use of elastic tape in chest wall and abdomen in the physical capacity, psychosocial distress levels, quality of life and anxiety, and depression symptoms of individuals with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation.
Oral Sildenafil for Exercise Capacity, Dyspnea and Cardiopulmonary Function in COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition characterized by airway obstruction. Patients with COPD experience significant shortness of breath on exertion. The mechanisms responsible for shortness of breath on exertion are well understood in moderate and severe COPD, but, are poorly understood in mild COPD where symptoms appear disproportionate …
A Clinical Study of Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Moderate-to-Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of exercise capacity and safety of iNO at doses of 10 ppm or 40 ppm for 2 hours per day after continuous treatment for one week, which is of great significance for finding safe and effective methods for treating COPD.
Rethinking Pulmonary Rehabilitation - a Three-arm Randomised Multicentre Trial
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is one of the cornerstones of care for people with COPD together with smoking cessation and medical treatment. Despite the compelling evidence for its benefits, pulmonary rehabilitation is delivered to less than 30% of patients with COPD. Access to PR are particularly challenging, and especially for those …
Home High Flow Oxygen to Reduce Acute Exacerbation of COPD
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of home High Flow Oxygen for the reduction of severe exacerbation following admission for a severe exacerbation of COPD or death against standard oxygen therapy.
Effects on Ventilation With NHF and Asymmetrical Nasal Cannulas
The aim of this controlled randomized crossover study is to compare the physiological effects of nasal high flow therapy (NHF) with 2 different nasal cannulas in patients with exacerbated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (ECOPD) and chronic respiratory failure. 20 patients will be treated with NHF therapy (Airvo, Fisher&Paykel Healthcare, NZ) …
Interest of Hypnosis When Setting up Non-invasive Ventilation in a Conscious Patient With COPD and/or Obesity With a BMI Greater Than 30, Suffering Fromacute Respiratory Distress in Adult Intensive Care
Discomfort during respiratory decompensation of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and/or obesity with a BMI greater than 30, in intensive care and the establishment of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is frequent and a source of failure. this therapy. Pharmacological treatments may be impossible due to the pathology, the …
