Clinical trials: Dynamic Hyperinflation
Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
Effects of Dynamic Hyperinflation on the Left-ventricular Diastolic Function in Healthy Male Subjects
The aim of this study is to identify whether actively induced dynamic hyperinflation can cause left-ventricular diastolic dysfunction in healthy male subjects in order to explore the mechanisms of developing cardiac dysfunctions…

Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
Effects of Tiotropium on Breathing Capacity and Exercise Limitation in Early Stages of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Optimal clinical management in early stages of COPD is not established. Tiotropium has been shown to improve exercise tolerance during (CWR) cycle ergometry with GOLD stage II to IV COPD, improvements in constant speed treadmill…

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Effects of Inhaled Corticosteroids in the Systemic Inflammation Induced by Exercise in Patients With COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by pulmonary and systemic inflammation. The effect of inhaled corticosteroids (IC) on inflammation in COPD is controversial.

Dynamic Hyperinflation
Dynamic Hyperinflation During Maximal Voluntary Ventilation in Healthy Subjects
Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) correlates well with maximal exercise capacity and is used to assess the ventilatory function during exercise in COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) patients.
