NCT06055543

NCT05548036
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common preventable and treatable respiratory condition. Its main symptoms include, breathlessness, cough and frequent chest infections. Many people with COPD struggle with excessive production of sputum, resulting in more hospital admissions and worse symptoms affecting quality of life. Guidelines suggest techniques to help clear sputum but there is not strong evidence behind these. In particular we don't know how effective cough clearance techniques are and indeed if any are better than others. This study will recruit people admitted to hospital with an exacerbation of COPD who have excessive sputum and randomise them to receive a hand-held airways clearance device or chest physiotherapy exercises. We will compare symptoms, quality of life, treatment burden and hospital admissions over the following year.
NCT06039943
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether wheeze as assessed by a commercially available wheeze monitor is comparable to lung function as measured during a spirometry test. The main questions it aims to answer are whether measures of airflow obstruction (FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF) correlate with wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%). Participants consenting to take part will undergo wheeze measurement prior to and during a spirometry test and will be asked to complete a series of symptom questionnaires.
