NCT04252781
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), , secondary to smoking, is a major public health issue with very high direct and indirect costs. The impact on the health system of undiagnosed patients, up to 70% of patients, is increasingly documented. However, systematic spirometry screening remains controversial among smokers in the absence of data to link the detection of new patients with improved management and clinical events and health goals. More generally, there is little data on the evolution of patients in real life once they have entered the care system. The premise is that with systematic screening in general medicine, it is possible to identify the evolution of newly diagnosed COPD patients, to distinguish the different possible evolutions according to the initial phenotype and the management.
NCT06760325
Despite the recent increased interest in identifying the needs of COPD patients and improving disease management, monitoring the psychosocial well-being of these individuals remains insufficient. Nursing care that incorporates psychosocial approaches plays a critical role in halting disease progression and controlling symptoms in COPD management. The Tidal Model emerges as a vital tool in enhancing patient independence throughout this process. This recovery-oriented model provides a robust framework for individualized care by thoroughly analyzing patients' needs. It likens life to an ocean voyage and emphasizes learning how to cope with challenges encountered during this journey. The difficulties experienced by individuals with chronic illness and respiratory limitations are aligned with the Tidal Model's concepts of chaos and tides. Current studies indicate that psychological interventions for COPD patients have limited effectiveness in reducing psychological morbidity. Additionally, while interventions such as mindfulness-based and digital approaches show promise, their effects have not consistently proven significant across studies. This underscores the ongoing challenge of effectively addressing the psychological aspects of COPD and highlights the need for further research to identify more robust interventions. In this context, guided by the philosophy of the Tidal Model that emphasizes "helping individuals with problems in living," it has been hypothesized that the model would be suitable for use with individuals with COPD. The current study aims to evaluate its effectiveness.
