Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 100 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Full clinical history including:[demographic data and clinical symptoms including cough with expectoration ,dyspnea,chest wheeze,…etc] 2.Full clinical examination. 3.laboratory investigations: Complete blood picture , kidney function test, liver function test,coagulation profile 4.Arterial blood gases [Pao2, Paco2,Sao2,Hco3, P(A_a)o2 ] 5.PFTS:will be performed and classified into: Post bronchodilator FEV1/FVC <0.7 GOLD 1 - mild: FEV1 ≥80% predicted. GOLD 2 - moderate: 50% ≤ FEV1 <80% predicted. GOLD 3 - severe: 30% ≤ FEV1 <50% predicted. GOLD 4 - very severe: FEV1 <30% predicted [5] 6.Echocardiography:is non invasive and easily accessible tool in the diagnosis of any patient with suspected PH. ePASP is estimated by calculating Doppler estimated trans tricuspid gradient (TR gradient= 4 x (TR velocity)2) and adding estimated right atrial pressure to it based on the size of the inferior vena cava and collapsibility.[6]

About this study

Official title: Clinical Characteristics and Predictors of Pulmonary Hypertension in COPD at Different Levels of Smoking

To identify Predictors of pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients and its relation to different levels of smoking

Read the detailed description

COPD is a heterogeneous lung condition characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms (dyspnea, cough, expectoration and/or exacerbations) due to abnormalities of the airways (bronchitis, bronchiolitis) and/or alveoli (emphysema) that cause persistent, often progressive, airflow obstruction.It is also the most common cause of deaths in patients with chronic respiratory disease, the fatality rate in USA is 0.41%.Pulmonary Hypertension is the most common serious complication in COPD patients ; which occurs in up to 30% of patients and increases the mortality rate.Smoking is the leading cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Smoking is also a trigger for COPD flare-ups.Smoking damages the air sacs, airways, and the lining of your lungs. Injured lungs have trouble moving enough air in and out, so it's hard to breathe

Being tested
Echocardiography and HRCT
Medical subject headings
Hypertension, Pulmonary

What participants receive

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

  • Echocardiography and HRCTDiagnostic test

    Echocardiography:is non invasive and easily accessible tool in the diagnosis of any patient with suspected PH.HRCT: is a non-invasive and easily accessible tool to detect pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Predictors of pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients

    Predict pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Relationship between different levels of smoking and predictors of degree of pulmonary hypertension

    Levels of smoking (mild.moderate.sever.non smoker) and it's relation to pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Hypertension, run by Assiut University.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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 Shrouk Mohamed Salah, Resident physician (01150637673, Shrouksalah806@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictors of pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients (time frame: 1 year). 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 14 Sep 2023.
