NCT07482033
This study is a randomized, controlled experimental trial with a pretest-posttest design, conducted to evaluate the effects of Pecha Kucha-based education on self-efficacy, symptom level, and activities of daily living in individuals diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) receiving noninvasive mechanical ventilation support. The study will include two groups, and intergroup differences will be evaluated: 1. Control group 2. Intervention group Study Hypotheses H1: Pecha Kucha-based education on noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) support provided to individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) increases patients' self-efficacy levels. H2: Pecha Kucha-based education on noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) support provided to individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) reduces patients' symptom levels. H3: Pecha Kucha-based education on noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) support provided to individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) improves patients' activities of daily living.

NCT02154568
Computer simulations are being developed to predict air flow abnormalities in the airways of patients with lung disease. The purpose of this study is to obtain actual gas flow measurements in the lungs of healthy patients and patients with lung disease and use these measurements to validate the computer models.
NCT06863246
Postural control impairment is common in people with COPD (pwCOPD), which can increase the risk of falls and affect quality of life. However, the majority of existing studies examine this postural control in isolation, without taking into account the cognitive demands that occur during activities of daily living during which individuals are often required to perform a mental task while maintaining their balance. This research aims to fill this gap by studying how a cognitive task can influence postural control in pwCOPD. We hypothesized an impaired postural control in pwCOPD compared to healthy individuals, which would be exacerbated in presence of a cognitive task.
NCT07472530
Purpose: This study evaluated the impact of a structured intervention on frailty, lung function, physical capacity, and dyspnea in elderly COPD patients. COPD, common in older adults, often coexists with frailty, which worsens health outcomes. While pulmonary rehabilitation improves function, its effect on frailty remains unclear. Procedures: A total of 66 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COPD were randomly allocated into two equal groups: an intervention group (n=33) and a control group (n=33). Participants in the intervention group completed a six-week pulmonary rehabilitation program. Both baseline and post-intervention evaluations comprised spirometric measurements (FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC ratio, FEF25-75, and PEF), the Edmonton Frailty Scale (EFS), the six-minute walk test (6MWT), oxygen saturation levels, and assessments of dyspnea severity. Results: Significant improvements were observed in the intervention group in FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, and PEF (p\<0.05). Total EFS scores and subdimensions such as mood, general health, and cognitive status also improved significantly (p\<0.05). Additionally, the intervention group showed increased 6MWT distance, higher oxygen saturation, and reduced dyspnea scores post-intervention (p\<0.05), with minimal changes in the control group. Conclusion: The findings suggest that pulmonary rehabilitation not only enhances pulmonary function and exercise capacity but also reduces frailty severity in elderly COPD patients. Integrating frailty-focused strategies into routine COPD management may improve outcomes and quality of life in this population.
NCT05742802

NCT07119229
A study taking place at multiple sites in the United States, Europe and Brazil to evaluate how well a new therapy for severe COPD/emphysema works, and how safe it is.
NCT07469904
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a pharmacist-led interactive mobile health intervention (serious game) in adults aged 50 years and older with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The study will test whether the intervention improves health status compared with usual care. Secondary outcomes include inhaler technique, medication adherence, health knowledge, dyspnea, clinical events, healthcare utilization, and costs. Participants in the intervention group will receive pharmacist guidance and use the serious game at home for 2 weeks.
NCT07462221
This research will be conducted using a pre-test and post-test control group experimental design to evaluate the effect of telenursing intervention on oral health in individuals with COPD.
NCT05819164
The oximeter is an instrument for monitoring patients receiving oxygen therapy. It displays pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2), which is a reflection of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). An accurate SpO2 value is essential for optimal management of the O2 flow delivered to patients. Several factors can influence this measurement and the choice of ventilatory support: the type of oximeter used, skin pigmentation and the oxygenation goal. The objective of our study is to evaluate the impact of the oxygenation goal and the oximeter used on oxygen flows in patients with COPD (or with hypercapnia, or at risk of hypercapnia) and in patients without COPD (in particular pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis and other pathologies) Our hypothesis is that the SpO2 target and oximeter used will have an impact on oxygen flows and that these effects will be synergistic in these different populations.

This registry will collect data on COPD, including the course of disease, treatment patterns, and potential new therapies. The registry will also track the experience of participants and caregivers in clinical practice.
NCT07453719

NCT07351929
The investigators have developed a new counseling service that focuses on the emotional distress experienced by people living with COPD. The service has been specially developed for patients who have experienced a deterioration in their lung condition (known as an acute exacerbation of COPD). The new program is led by an APN team. Other professionals are involved in the program, such as medical staff and physiotherapists. The new counseling service lasts three months. Patients will receive ten counseling sessions with a specialized nurse. The overall objective of the study is to assess the feasibility of the newly developed emotional-distress-based integrated care programme.

NCT07396311
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous condition with recurrent exacerbations despite guideline-based therapy. This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate whether baseline fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), a biomarker of type 2 airway inflammation, predicts future exacerbations and lung function decline in COPD patients initiated on triple inhaler therapy in routine clinical practice. The study will also explore the relationships between air pollution exposure, type 2 inflammatory biomarkers, and COPD outcomes.
