Home breathing device study for COPD patients after recent flare-up
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a home high-flow nasal breathing device (myAirvo 3) helps people with COPD who recently needed hospital care for a flare-up. You would use the device at home and track symptoms, oxygen levels, and heart rate daily to see how well it works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can sign an informed consent form and agree to follow study steps for the whole study
- You are age 30 or older
- Your lung test shows COPD with moderate to very severe airflow limitation (based on FEV1/FVC and FEV1)
- Your COPD symptoms are significant (either at least moderate breathlessness or a high symptom score)
- You had a serious COPD flare-up that needed hospital care within the last 6 weeks, and you are now stable after that hospital stay
- You can use the myAirvo 3 device at home at least 8 hours each day and do daily symptom and pulse-ox/heart-rate tracking

This study tests a wearable device that listens to your breathing at home. It may help detect early signs of a COPD flare-up so you can get care sooner. You can join if you have moderate to severe COPD and recently left the hospital for a flare-up.
This trial studies a coordinated (multidisciplinary) care program for people with severe COPD who were recently hospitalized for worsening breathing symptoms. It may help reduce future flare-ups and improve day-to-day breathing by coordinating multiple types of care in a COPD center.
This study tests whether using a special oxygen device at home helps prevent another acute COPD flare after you’ve been hospitalized. It’s mainly for people with severe breathing problems who may need oxygen support long-term.
This study tests a home monitoring device designed to catch COPD flare-ups (exacerbations) before they become severe. If you have had recent flare-ups, this device might help you stay healthier by alerting your doctor to problems early.
This study looks at signals from non-invasive home ventilators to better track COPD. It may help understand how to manage the condition using data from your device.
This trial tests whether a breathing and exercise program done at home can lower COPD flare-ups and the chance of needing hospital care. It may help people with more severe COPD manage breathlessness and stay stable.
