Trial summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading and rising causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The most important etiopathogenetic agent is smoking. However, air-pollution probably also plays a crucial role in the disease development, progression and exacerbations. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: SHAPES Advanced Telemonitoring of Patients With COPD in Home Environment

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading and rising causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The most important etiopathogenetic agent is smoking. However, air-pollution probably also plays a crucial role in the disease development, progression and exacerbations. The multimodal-telemedicine approach may provide a useful tool in the patient follow-up with the aim to reduce disease exacerbation rate and improve the health-related quality of life. The study aims to investigate the effects and utility of advanced telemonitoring in elderly COPD patients. All data will be integrated in a single web-based platform in order to analyse the mutual effects of different conditions and variables.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MedimonitorDevice

    A digital solution consisting of smartphone/tablet based application gathering data from medical and other devices provided to the patients. These devices are as follows: tablet, smart inhaler, spirometer, blood pressure monitor, pulse oximetry device, particulate matter sensor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Telemetric spirometry - FVC

    Evaluation of telemetric measurement of FVC in home enviroment in COPD patients wih use of mobile spirometer

    Measured: 3 month

  2. Telemetric spirometry - PEF

    Evaluation of telemetric measurement of PEF in home enviroment in COPD patients wih use of mobile spirometer

    Measured: 3 month

  3. Telemetric spirometry - FEV1%

    Evaluation of telemetric measurement of FEV1% in home enviroment in COPD patients wih use of mobile spirometer

    Measured: 3 month

  4. Telemetric spirometry - FEV1%/FVC ratio

    Evaluation of telemetric measurement of FEV1%/FVC ratio in home enviroment in COPD patients wih use of mobile spirometer

    Measured: 3 month

  5. Blood oxygen saturation monitoring

    Continuous measurement of blood oxygen saturation in the study group.

    Measured: 3 month

  6. Particulate matter concentration monitoring

    Continuous measurement of both indoor and outdoor air-pollution levels via monitoring of selected parameters (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM4.0, PM10). and some other selected environmental parameters (humidity and temperature) - as well in both outdoor and indoor conditions.

    Measured: 3 month

  7. Environmental monitoring

    Continuous measurement of selected environmental parameters (humidity and temperature) - in both outdoor and indoor conditions.

    Measured: 3 month

  8. Adherence monitoring - rate of inhalations per day

    The regular monitoring of the patients' adherence to the inhaled therapy, using FindAir smart inhaler technology. Rate of inhalations per day is measured via special cap mounted on the top of the inhaler which is detecting each activation while pressing the cap. Result is being compared with the amount of inhalations recommended by the physician.

    Measured: 3 month

  9. Adherence monitoring - time of inhalation deviation

    The regular monitoring of the patients' adherence to the inhaled therapy, using FindAir smart inhaler technology. A specific time of inhalation is being recorded by a special cap mounted on the top of the inhaler which is detecting each activation while pressing the cap. Deviation between recommended time of inhalation and real time of inhalation is being monitored through the study.

    Measured: 3 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COPD, run by University Hospital Olomouc at 1 site in Czechia.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2024. 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 Czechia. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Telemetric spirometry - FVC (time frame: 3 month). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Jan 2024.
