Lung Health Intervention Study in Nepal
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a tailored intervention program can help improve lung function and prevent long-term lung disease in people aged 9 and older living in Nepal who show signs of early lung problems. Participants will be followed for 40 months to see if the program makes a difference.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 9 years old
- You live in the Bhaktapur district in Nepal and plan to stay there for the next 40 months
- Your breathing test results show lower-than-normal lung function for your age (based on a specific measurement called FEV1/FVC)
- You have at least one respiratory risk factor, such as regular cough, wheezing, past tuberculosis, asthma, smoking history, or occupational dust/smoke exposure
- You are willing to complete breathing tests and attend study visits over 40 months
- You can safely perform breathing tests (no medical condition that would make spirometry unsafe)
