Smart home monitoring for lung flare-ups in CF and bronchiectasis
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if a smart home monitoring system (using sensors and AI) can detect sudden lung flare-ups early in people with cystic fibrosis or bronchiectasis. It may help you get treatment sooner when you are admitted to the hospital for IV antibiotics.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have cystic fibrosis (CF) or non-CF bronchiectasis (a lung condition that causes widening of airways).
- You are being treated at Royal Papworth Hospital.
- You are starting IV antibiotics for a sudden worsening of your lung symptoms (called an acute pulmonary exacerbation).
- You are not on long-term oxygen therapy, a breathing machine at home, or a lung transplant waiting list.

This study aims to understand what causes and increases the risk of lung infections (exacerbations) in people with cystic fibrosis. It involves regular monitoring and sample collection at home and in the clinic to identify early warning signs.
This study looks at how lung infections and inflammation affect people with cystic fibrosis during severe flare-ups. It aims to understand which antibiotics work best and why, so your care team can choose the right treatment for you.
This study tests a non-contact, at-a-distance monitoring system to help detect COPD flare-ups early. If you’ve had flare-ups before, it may help track changes sooner and support better care decisions.
This trial tests if people with COPD can use a home monitoring system after a flare-up to help doctors track their recovery. It aims to reduce hospital visits and improve care.
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 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.
