The Effects of a Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) on Dyspnea and Dynamic Hyperinflation During...

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

From the relationship between pathophysiology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dyspnea, and dynamic hyperinflation during ventilatory increasing, the investigators hypothesize that Positive expiratory pressure (PEP) breathing will reduce dyspnea more than normal breathing during exercise in mild to moderate COPD patients. PEP breathing will improve dynamic hyperinflation during exercise more than normal breathing in mild to moderate COPD patients. PEP breathing will improve cardiorespiratory function during exercise than normal breathing in mild to moderate COPD patients.

Investigation of the Effectiveness of Upper Limb Exercise in COPD Patients

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of upper limb exercise training in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients. For the purpose of the study, a controlled trial will be conducted within Respiratory Clinic of Nicosia General Hospital. The sample will be divided in two groups. The intervention group will participate in a pulmonary rehabilitation program which includes upper and lower extremities exercises, with addition of arm ergometer. The second group (control group) will participate in the same program but without arm ergometer training. The study's hypothesis is that the intervention group will improve the outcome measures significantly better than the control group.

Congestive Heart FailureCancer4 more

This project compares two models of the Serious Illness Care Program (SICP) in primary care: clinician-focused SICP and team-based SICP. Discussion and planning for serious illness care can help patients identify what is most important to them and assure they receive care that best matches their goals and values, such as spending more time at home or not being in pain.

Person-centred Care at Distance

Heart FailureChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The goal of the research project PROTECT is to translate the Person-Centred Care (PCC) principles into an eHealth (the use of information and communication technologies for health) context. A developed PCC eHealth platform will be used as a tool to identify patients´ resources to enhance coping and living with their chronic illness by means of a dialog and partnership with staff and relatives. The PCC eHealth platform will not replace, but instead be used as add on treatment to usual care (guideline directed care).

Education With Inhalers in Patients With COPD Exacerbation

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a public health problem with great morbidity. The main therapeutic strategy is inhalers. The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of an educational intervention in the use of inhalers in patients with COPD including ventilatory re-education and video recordings of the patients themselves.

GECo: Implementation and Effectiveness of COPD Self Management Action Plans in Low and Middle Income...

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

This study will randomise people with clinically significant COPD (GOLD Grade B-D) to usual care or provision of a self-management action plan supported by monthly follow-up visits from a community health worker trained in the use of the action plan. The primary outcome will be health-status: a comparison of the change in St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) between baseline and 12 months in the two groups. We will randomise 240 people from three low- and middle-income countries, namely Nepal, Peru and Uganda. We will also examine the feasibility of implementing our self-management action plan intervention at scale.

Chronic Heart FailureDiabetes Mellitus2 more

The aim of the USECARE project is to improve and test SENACA, an ICT-based self-management support system for chronically ill patients and informal caregivers. 60 end-users will be instructed to use SENACA for approx. 3 months (in Israel and Norway). Amongst others, clinical and behavioural outcomes will be recorded. Additionally, SENACA's usability will be evaluated to determine its potential future scalability.
