Are Comorbidities Related to Frequent Severe Exacerbations of AECOPD

Chronic Obstructive Lung DiseaseAcute Exacerbation of COPD1 more

INTRODUCTION: Relationship between comorbidities and COPD is two-sided. While the number of comorbidities increasing, the frequency of acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) is increasing, too. Comorbidity indexes can be used for recognition of comorbidities while managing COPD patients. In the present study, it is aimed to compare comorbidity indexes such as Charlson Comorbidity Index, COMCOLD and COTE in the matter of exacerbation frequency. METHOD: Subjects hospitalized for AECOPD, admitted to the study. Exacerbation severity, frequency, further exacerbations for a 1-year period in the follow-up period and CCI, COMCOLD and COTE scores were recorded. High and low comorbidity groups were compared for AECOPD frequency, severity, and further exacerbations.

The Study of CCTM and Common Diseases

HypertensionDiabetes Mellitus3 more

This study aimed to explore the associations between constitutions of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and common disease (CD). A large-scale, community-based, cross-sectional study was performed to investigate the associations. A total of 3748 participants were available for analysis in this study. The assessment of constitution of TCM was based on recommendations of Association Chinese Medicine in China. In this study, the diagnosis of CD was based on self-reported medical history. The associations were analyzed using univariate and multivariable logistic regression (MLR).

Pain Assessment in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Exacerbations.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is between 8 and 12% of the adult population. This prevalence is expected to increase over the coming decades due to the aging of the population and the continued exposure to risk factors for the disease. The evolution of COPD is marked by the occurrence of exacerbations of varying severity and patients are frequently admitted to the emergency department for evaluation, treatment and / or hospitalization. Admission in emergency department for COPD exacerbation represents approximately 1% of emergency admission. Chronic pain is common in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The pain intensity may increase during acute episodes of exacerbations. This study is aimed to compare pain intensity during exacerbation and stable phase of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Telemonitoring in Pulmonary Rehabilitation: Validity of a Remote Pulse Oxymetry System

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary DiseasePulmonary Rehabilitation1 more

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and the reliability of a telemonitoring system during pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronicle obstructive pulmonary disease. The feasibility is assessed using the patient's satisfaction and it ease of use. The reliability of the remote telemonitoring system is assessed comparing the local data (extracted from the monitoring device itself) and the data transmitted through the telemonitoring platform.

Assessment of Physical Functioning and Handling of Spiolto® Respimat® in Patients With Chronic Obstructive...

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive

The primary objective of the study is to measure changes in physical functioning - serving as a surrogate for physical activity and exercise capacity - in COPD patients being treated with Spiolto® Respimat® after approximately 6 weeks. A secondary objective is to evaluate the patient¿s general condition (physician¿s evaluation) at visit 1 (baseline visit at the start of the study) and at visit 2 (final visit at the end of the study, approx. 6 weeks after visit 1), as well as patient satisfaction with Spiolto® Respimat® at visit 2.
