Validating a COPD detection algorithm
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at people with COPD to see if an algorithm can help better find and manage the condition. If you are 40 or older and have had lung function tests recently, you may be able to help improve COPD care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how checking both your lungs and heart together can help doctors better manage COPD. It's for people with moderate to mild COPD who also have a heart condition.
This study looks at different forms of COPD to find better ways to treat them. It may help you understand your own condition and receive more personalized care.
This study uses information from past hospital discharge records and breathing test results to predict who with COPD may have worse health outcomes later. It may help future COPD care by identifying higher-risk patients earlier.
This study tests a software algorithm that uses your health data to predict if you might have a COPD exacerbation (flare-up) within 60 days after leaving the hospital. The goal is to catch problems early and help you stay healthier.
This study looks for undiagnosed COPD in people with heart conditions like coronary heart disease, atrial fibrillation, or chronic heart failure. If you have heart disease and are over 40, you may join to see if you also have COPD and benefit from combined care.
This study tests whether wearable medical devices can help monitor your COPD symptoms at home. You will use a smartphone app and a small chest patch to track your breathing, which may help you and your doctor better manage your condition.
