Trial summary

In this study the invetigators seek an answer on the following hypothesis: What are the long term effects of an IPV treatment evaluated with classical outcome parameters? (FEV1, Raw) Is the possible effect noticeable on the novel technique and is this comparable with the classical outcome parameters? Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effects of Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation Using Functional Respiratory Imaging

In this study the invetigators seek an answer on the following hypothesis:

  • What are the long term effects of an IPV treatment evaluated with classical outcome parameters? (FEV1, Raw)
  • Is the possible effect noticeable on the novel technique and is this comparable with the classical outcome parameters?
Read the detailed description

A Multicenter study conducted in university Hospital Antwerp (UZA) and ZNA Middelheim.

Tests are taken before and after one week IPV treatment. IPV is applied for 1 week during the physical therapy treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary desease (COPD) patients admitted to the hospital for an excarebation. The IPV treatment is an additional treatment upon the standard treatment of the patients. The standard treatment consists out of existing drainage techniques to remove secretion out of the lungs by means of breathing control exercises. Patients are randomized into either the experimental group or the control group. The control group receives a standard physical therapy treatment without additional IPV treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lung function testing

    (spirometric , bodybox en diffusion) Performed in the lung function laboratory according to ERS standards using Jaeger 5.1 device vital capacity (VC), FEV1, FEV1/VC, peak expiratory flow (PEF), MMEF 75/25, MEF 50, MEF 25, MIF 50, RV, total lung capacity (TLC), functionale residual capacity (FRC), resistance, spec resistance, TCO, alveolar volume (VA), TCO/VA, Maximal inspiratory pressure, Maximal expiratory pressure

    Measured: baseline and after one week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. functional respiratory imaging

    A 3D CT-scan is take. Images are uploaded into a software program for post processing 3D images are made and images are post processed

    Measured: at baseline and after one week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intrapulmonary percussive ventilation and standard treatment in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by University Hospital, Antwerp at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Kris Ides, Msc (036418267, kris.ides@artesis.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung function testing (time frame: baseline and after one week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 May 2015.
