Dynamic Hyperinflation and Tiotropium

August 10, 2019 updated by: Gelb, Arthur F., M.D.

Simplified Detection of Dynamic Hyperinflation Using Metronome Paced Hyperventilation and the Effect of Tiotropium in Patients With COPD

We will detect dynamic hyperinflation (DH) in 40 COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) patients with moderately severe disease using metronome paced hyperventilation (MPH) with inspiratory capacity as the primary end point. Hypothesis: Is tiotropium capable of lung volume protecting inspiratory capacity from MPH induced DH vs placebo in a randomized crossover double blinded study.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Study completed with 29 patients studied. Data is being analyzed to evaluate trough and peak effect of 18 µg tiotropium vs placebo on FEV 1 (L)(forced expiratory capacity in one second), inspiratory capacity and functional residual volume. In addition, we will study the effect of 18 µg tiotropium vs placebo on metronome paced hyperventilation induced dynamic hyperinflation. We will also evaluate the effect of tiotropium induced increase in IC (inspiratory capacity) vs extent of emphysema as evaluated on high resolution thin section CT lung

Phase

Phase

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
