Conditions

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Emphysema

Brief summary

The goal of this pliot study al is to preliminarily evaluate the effectiveness and safety of transbronchial lung volume reduction surgery using the self-devloped endobronchial valves for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with emphysema phenotype . The main questions it aims to answer are: Does self-devloped endobronchial valves improve the lung function、exercise capacity and symptons of participants? What surgery-related adverse events do participants have after transbronchial lung volume reduction surgery using the self-devloped endobronchial valves? Participants will: undergo transbronchial lung volume reduction surgery using the self-devloped endobronchial valves. receive follow-up before surgery (baseline) and 3 days, 4 weeks, 12weeks after surgery.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage change in FEV1 relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo lung function tests.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage change in RV relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo lung function tests, and residual volume (RV) will be recorded.
Percentage change in TLC relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo lung function tests, and total lung capacity (TLC) will be recorded.
Percentage change in DLCO relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo lung function tests, and the diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) will be recorded.
Percentage of subjects with FEV1 improvement ≥ 12% after bronchodilators12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo lung function tests.
Percentage change in mMRC grade relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will receive a modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) questionnaire.
Percentage change in 6MWD relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will undergo 6-minute walk test, and 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) will be recored.
the incidence of surgical-related adverse events12 weeks after surgeryThe surgical-related adverse events refers to pneumothorax, valve displacement or shedding, granuloma formation and other surgical-related adverse events.
Percentage change in SGRQ score relative to baseline12 weeks after surgeryThe patient will receive a St.Georges respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) questionnaire survey.
