Simplified Detection of Dynamic Hyperinflation Using Metronome Paced Hyperventilation and the Effect of Tiotropium in Patients With COPD
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Placebo for COPD. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 2 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
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.

Interventions
Procedure/Surgery - tiotropium 18ug capsule daily for 1 month vs placebo to study the effect of trough and peak effect on bronchodilation and effect of metronome paced hyperventilation induced dynamic hyperinflation
