Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Clinical decisions in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment often utilize serially assessed physiologic parameters and biomarkers. To better understand the reliability of these tests, we evaluated changes in commonly assessed biomarkers over 3 months in patients with clinically stable COPD. METHODS: We performed an observational prospective cohort study of 89 individuals with clinically stable COPD, defined as no exacerbation history within 3 months of enrollment. Biomarkers included lung function and functional performance status, patient-reported outcomes of symptoms and health status, and blood markers of inflammation. The correlation between testing at baseline and at 3-month follow-up was reported as the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Outliers had significant variability between tests, defined as >1.645 standard deviations between the two measurements. Differences in clinical features between outliers and others were compared. RESULTS: Participants with COPD (n = 89) were 70.5 ± 6.7 years old, 54 (61%) male, had a 40 pack-year smoking history with 24.7% being current smokers, and postbronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) 62.3 ± 22.7% predicted. The biomarkers with excellent agreement between the initial and the follow-up measurements were FEV1 (ICC = 0.96), Saint Georges Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) (ICC = 0.98), COPD Assessment Test (CAT) (ICC = 0.93) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (ICC = 0.90). By contrast, parameters showing less robust agreement were 6-minute walking distance (ICC = 0.75), eosinophil count (ICC = 0.77), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ICC = 0.75) and white blood cell count (ICC = 0.48). Individuals with greater variability in biomarkers reported chronic bronchitis more often and had higher baseline SGRQ and CAT scores. CONCLUSION: Our study evaluated the stability of commonly assessed biomarkers in clinically stable COPD and showed excellent agreement between baseline and three-month follow-up values for FEV1, SGRQ, CAT and CRP. Individuals with chronic bronchitis and more symptomatic disease at baseline demonstrated greater variability in 3-month interval biomarkers.

Abstract

Optimal peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) is required for effective drug delivery to distal airways when using dry powder inhalers (DPIs). This study aimed to examine the association between PIFR and hand grip strength (HGS) in stable COPD patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted. PIFR was measured using the In-check DIAL to assess for Accuhaler and Turbuhaler DPIs. HGS was measured using a handheld dynamometer. A PIFR of

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between heart rate variability (HRV) and various phenotypic measures that relate to health and functional status in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and secondly, to demonstrate the feasibility of ascertaining HRV via a chest-worn wearable biosensor in COPD patients. HRV analysis was performed using SDNN (standard deviation of the mean of all normal R-R intervals), low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF), and LF/HF ratio. We evaluated the associations between HRV and COPD severity, class of bronchodilator therapy prescribed, and patient reported outcomes. Seventy-nine participants with COPD were enrolled. There were no differences in SDNN, HF, and LF/HF ratio according to COPD severity. The SDNN in participants treated with concurrent beta-agonists and muscarinic antagonists was lower than that in other participants after adjusting heart rate (beta coefficient -3.980, p = 0.019). The SDNN was positively correlated with Veterans Specific Activity Questionnaire (VSAQ) score (r = 0.308, p = 0.006) and handgrip strength (r = 0.285, p = 0.011), and negatively correlated with dyspnea by modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) questionnaire (r = -0.234, p = 0.039), health status by Saint Georges Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) (r = -0.298, p = 0.008), symptoms by COPD Assessment Test (CAT) (r = -0.280, p = 0.012), and BODE index (r = -0.269, p = 0.020). When measured by a chest-worn wearable device, reduced HRV was observed in COPD participants receiving inhaled beta-sympathomimetic agonist and muscarinic antagonists. HRV was also correlated with various health status and performance measures.

Abstract

Background: Current management practices and outcomes in weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation are poorly understood. We aimed to describe the epidemiology, management, timings, risk for failure, and outcomes of weaning in patients requiring at least 2 days of invasive mechanical ventilation. Methods: WEAN SAFE was an international, multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study done in 481 intensive care units in 50 countries. Eligible participants were older than 16 years, admitted to a participating intensive care unit, and receiving mechanical ventilation for 2 calendar days or longer. We defined weaning initiation as the first attempt to separate a patient from the ventilator, successful weaning as no reintubation or death within 7 days of extubation, and weaning eligibility criteria based on positive end-expiratory pressure, fractional concentration of oxygen in inspired air, and vasopressors. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients successfully weaned at 90 days. Key secondary outcomes included weaning duration, timing of weaning events, factors associated with weaning delay and weaning failure, and hospital outcomes. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03255109. Findings: Between Oct 4, 2017, and June 25, 2018, 10 232 patients were screened for eligibility, of whom 5869 were enrolled. 4523 (77·1%) patients underwent at least one separation attempt and 3817 (65·0%) patients were successfully weaned from ventilation at day 90. 237 (4·0%) patients were transferred before any separation attempt, 153 (2·6%) were transferred after at least one separation attempt and not successfully weaned, and 1662 (28·3%) died while invasively ventilated. The median time from fulfilling weaning eligibility criteria to first separation attempt was 1 day (IQR 0–4), and 1013 (22·4%) patients had a delay in initiating first separation of 5 or more days. Of the 4523 (77·1%) patients with separation attempts, 2927 (64·7%) had a short wean (≤1 day), 457 (10·1%) had intermediate weaning (2–6 days), 433 (9·6%) required prolonged weaning (≥7 days), and 706 (15·6%) had weaning failure. Higher sedation scores were independently associated with delayed initiation of weaning. Delayed initiation of weaning and higher sedation scores were independently associated with weaning failure. 1742 (31·8%) of 5479 patients died in the intensive care unit and 2095 (38·3%) of 5465 patients died in hospital. Interpretation: In critically ill patients receiving at least 2 days of invasive mechanical ventilation, only 65% were weaned at 90 days. A better understanding of factors that delay the weaning process, such as delays in weaning initiation or excessive sedation levels, might improve weaning success rates.

Abstract

Background. This study is aimed at determining the quality of life, mental health, and adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) among Thai OSA patients during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic as this data has been lacking. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a university hospital between September 2021 and April 2022. OSA patients aged 18 years or older who required home CPAP treatment were included. Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index (SAQLI) and Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) were used to assess quality of life and mental health, respectively. Results. A total of 142 participants (62% male) were included, with a mean age of 54.4 ± 14.7 years and a body mass index of 29.9 ± 6.8 kg/m2. Polysomnographic data showed a mean apnea-hypopnea index of 48.0 ± 32.4 events/hour and a mean lowest oxygen saturation of 79.2 ± 12.2 %. Severe OSA was observed in 66.9%. CPAP compliance was reported in 50.7%. The SAQLI score was 2.32 ± 1.12. Depression, anxiety, and stress scores in DASS-21 were 2.89 ± 3.31 , 3.94 ± 3.67 , and 4.82 ± 4.00 , respectively. Compared to the CPAP compliance group, the CPAP noncompliance group had higher daily activity scores in SAQLI (2.98 ± 1.25 vs. 2.45 ± 1.33 , P = 0.015). Conclusions. The quality of life for Thai OSA patients during the COVID-19 era was moderate degree. Poor CPAP compliance was significantly associated with limited daily activity. Enhancing CPAP compliance could improve the quality of life in these patients. This trial is registered with TCTR20211104004. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Asthma in the elderly is underdiagnosed and associated with a higher risk for morbidity and mortality. Objective: To describe clinical features and lung functions of asthma in Thai elderly patients. Materials and Methods: The authors extracted data from the electronic medical records at Thammasat University Hospital between 2015 and 2019. Asthmatic patients aged 18 years or older were included and divided into elderly, being 65 years or older and non-elderly groups being younger than 65 years. Results: Two thousand three hundred ninety-nine patients were screened and 1,600 were eligible for the study with 72.6% female. The median (IQR) age was 54.0 years (44.0, 64.0). FEV1 was 74.6% (61.3, 86.7). There were 410 patients (25.6%) in the elderly group, or a prevalence of 0.23% of all elderly patients. Compared to the non-elderly group, patients in the elderly group were more predominantly female, had lower prevalence of allergic rhinitis, but higher prevalence of hypertension and diabetes. The elderly group also had lower pre-bronchodilator FVC at 77.2% (62.1, 91.8) versus 81.2% (69.8, 91.6) (p=0.012), and pre-bronchodilator FEV1 of 1.23 L (0.96, 1.53) versus 1.86 L (1.42, 2.34) (p<0.001). Only bronchodilator response in FVC was higher in the elderly group, compared to the non-elderly group at 9.2% (2.7, 17.1) versus 3.9% (0.0, 10.4) (p<0.001). Conclusion: Asthma prevalence in Thai elderly patients at a university hospital was low. Elderlies with asthma had lower prevalence of allergic rhinitis, lower lung functions, but higher bronchodilator response compared to non-elderly patients. Future studies should investigate the effects of comorbid diseases and lung functions on asthmatic outcomes among elderly patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

AbstractObjectiveData SourcesSelected StudiesResultsConclusionThis study investigated the utilization of nebulized budesonide for acute asthma and COPD exacerbations as well as for maintenance therapy in adults.We conducted a search on PubMed for nebulized budesonide treatment.Selecting all English-language papers that utilize Mesh phrases "asthma," "COPD," "budesonide," "nebulized," "adult," "exacerbation," and "maintenance" without temporal restrictions, and narrowing down to clinical research such as RCTs, observational studies, and real-world studies.Analysis of 25 studies was conducted to assess the effectiveness of nebulized budesonide in asthma (n = 10) and COPD (n = 15). The panel in Thailand recommended incorporating nebulized budesonide as an additional or alternative treatment option to the standard of care and systemic corticosteroids (SCS) based on the findings.Nebulized budesonide is effective and well-tolerated in treating asthma and COPD, with less systemic adverse effects compared to systemic corticosteroids. High-dose nebulized budesonide can enhance clinical outcomes for severe and mild exacerbations with slow systemic corticosteroid response. Nebulized budesonide can substitute systemic corticosteroids in some situations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Asthma and allergic rhinitis (AR) can coexist and cause disabilities. This study aimed to assess the association between AR, asthma control, asthma-related quality of life, and other comorbidities., Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in adults with asthma in six hospitals in Thailand. The outcomes were association of asthma control assessed by the asthma control test (ACT), AR, and asthma comorbidities. Not-well-controlled asthma was defined as ACT scores ≤22. The severity of AR was determined by visual analog scale (VAS). Severe AR was defined as VAS ≥5. Asthma-related quality of life (AQLQ), comorbidities, and total IgE were recorded., Results: A total of 682 asthmatic patients were included. Median (IQR) age was 58.0 (47.0-64.0) years. 69.9% were female. Not-well-controlled asthma was present in 44.7%. The prevalence of AR was 86.1%. Moderate/severe persistent AR was diagnosed in 21.7% and severe AR was diagnosed in 30.2% of the patients. Inhaled corticosteroid-containing regimens were prescribed in 97.7% of patients. Intranasal corticosteroid and antihistamine were prescribed in 65.7 and 31.7%, respectively. Patients with not-well-controlled asthma had higher body mass index, VAS scores, proportions of pollution exposure, aeroallergen sensitization, severe AR, nasal polyp, urticaria, food allergy, gastroesophageal reflux disease, depression and anxiety, peptic ulcer, and asthma exacerbations, but younger age, lower AQLQ scores, and lower FEV 1 . Correlation was found between AR severity and ACT ( r  = -0.461, p  < 0.001), AQLQ ( r  = -0.512, p  < 0.001), and total IgE ( r  = 0.246, p  < 0.023). Multiple regression analysis revealed that ACT, AQLQ, and percentage of FEV 1 /FVC were significantly associated with severe AR., Conclusion: Allergic rhinitis is prevalent in Thai asthmatic patients. AR severity is associated with asthma control, quality of life, and pulmonary function. Comprehensive care is essential for patients with uncontrolled asthma, particularly when coexisting with conditions., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Sriprasart, Saiphoklang, Kawamatawong, Boonsawat, Mitthamsiri, Chirakalwasan, Chiewchalermsri, Athipongarporn, Kamalaporn, Kornthatchapong, Kulpraneet, Sompornrattanaphan, Oer-Areemitr, Rerkpattanapipat, Silairatana, Thawanaphong, Gaensan, Jirakran and Poachanukoon.)

Abstract

Maternal anatomical and physiological changes occur during pregnancy, particularly with cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Pregnant women with large mediastinal mass additionally have an increased risk of cardiopulmonary compromise. We report a 31-year-old patient at 30 weeks of gestation with a large anterior mediastinal tumour with superior vena cava obstruction. Her presenting symptom was progressive and severe dyspnea due to the large mediastinal mass. An ultrasound-guided biopsy was performed and the pathologic result was Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Termination of pregnancy and delivery of the neonate were performed using a Caesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia in the sitting position. The perioperative anaesthetic management was successful without any serious complications, and the postoperative outcomes were very impressive.

Abstract

Background: Pleural fluid adenosine deaminase (ADAPF) is a diagnostic test for diagnosing the early tuberculous pleuritis (TBP). However, cutoff values vary widely in many studies., Objective: To determine the optimal diagnostic value of ADAPF., Material and Method: A prospective study was performed between August 2012 and August 2014. One hundred seventyeight patients with pleural effusions; 29 TBPs, 63 malignant pleural effusions (MPEs), 40 parapneumonic effusions (PARAEs), 18 transudates, 5 empyemas, 19 other exudates, and 4 unknown causes, were investigated., Results: Mean + SD of ADAPF was 60.0+25.6 U/L with TBPs, 15.6+11.1 U/L with MPEs, 15.8+9.9 U/L with PARAEs, 6.6+5.7 U/L with transudates, 13.8+7.7 U/L with empyemas, 14.5+7.1 U/L with other exudates, and 17.8+4.6 U/L with unknown causes. The area under the ROC curve was 0.983 (95% CI: 0.969-0.998) for the best ADAPF cutoff value of 33.5 U/L, with 93.1% sensitivity, 94.6 % specificity, 77.1% positive predictive value, and 98.6% negative predictive. ADAPF level <30.5 U/L suggests that a TBP is highly unlikely., Conclusion: Pleural fluid ADA assay is a helpful diagnostic tool with high sensitivity and specificity for the rapid diagnosis of TBP.

Abstract

Background: Spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) can be a medical emergency requiring early diagnosis and treatment to prevent subsequent respiratory failure and death. SP epidemiologic and clinical data are limited in Thailand, Objective: To study the prevalence, clinical manifestations, and mortality rate of SP in Thai patients., Material and Method: A retrospective case study was conducted between July 2004 and December 2010 in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of SP Demographic, etiologic, clinical, radiographic, and outcome data were collected., Results: One hundred patients with SP were identified (66 primary, 34 secondary SP), for a prevalence of 76.3 per 100,000 hospital admissions. Males numbered 83. Male to female ratios were 7.5:1 and 4.1:1 for primary and secondary SP respectively. Mean (+/- standard deviation) age and body mass index were 35.3 +/- 20.3 years and 18.0 +/- 2.2 kilogram/meter2. The common presenting symptoms were dyspnea (73%), chest pain or discomfort (68%), pleuritic pain (46%), cough (20%), and fever (13%). Causes of secondary SP were pulmonary tuberculosis (19/34, 55.9%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (14/34, 41.2%), and pneumonia (8/34, 23.5%). There were 12 deaths (12%), 11 with secondary SP CONCLUSION: Spontaneous pneumothorax was relatively common with typical clinicalfeatures. Almost all of mortality cases rate suffered secondary SP Prospective studies are needed to develop evidenced based algorithms, especially for secondary SP patients.
