The feasibility of a home-based remotely supervised maintenance exercise training program
in patients with COPD

To evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of an 8-week remotely supervised home-based maintenance exercise training program following pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.

Is, in infertile women undergoing a basic fertility work-up, tubal flushing with oil-based contrast medium during hysterosalpingography (HSG) cost-effective compared to tubal flushing by hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy)? A randomized controlled trial.

The main objective of this study is to determine whether tubal flushing with oil-based contrast during HSG results into more pregnancies leading to live births when compared to tubal flushing with ExEm-foam during HyFoSy, and whether this approach…

Standardized dietary challenge to monitor effects of rehabilitation program in patients with COPD: a pilot study

In the present pilot study, we intend to test phenotypic flexibility (Phenflex)  in 20 clinically stable patients with COPD by exploring their response to a dietary challenge test before and after pulmonary rehabilitation. Moreover, the…

Optimal postoperative chest tube and pain management in patients surgically treated for primary spontaneous pneumothorax; a randomized controlled trial.

Our objective is to compare the efficacy of early chest tube removal combined with single-shot PVB versus standard treatment (chest tube for at least 3 days and thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA)) after surgery for PSP. Efficacy is defined as…

Beta-Alanine Supplementation in patients with COPD following a pulmonary rehabilitation program.

The primary objective is to compare the effects of daily beta-alanine supplementation or a placebo supplement on exercise tolerance (cycle endurance time).  The secondary objectives are:1) To compare the effects of daily oral beta…
