Efficacy and Safety of Broncho Muco Cleaner Balloon Dilation Therapy

Efficacy and Safety of Broncho Muco Cleaner Balloon Dilation Therapy in Chronic Bronchitis-predominant COPD Cases

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Jul 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

In COPD patients with chronic bronchitis, it is aimed to determine whether the broncho muco cleaner balloon dilation method can provide clinical and functional benefit by causing destruction in hyperplasic goblet cells in the bronchial system. Although 2 studies have been published on this subject before, one of them is a retrospective design and the other is a pilot study consisting of only 10 patients . Therefore, it is clear that it should be supported by a controlled prospective study with more patients. Within the scope of the research, broncho muco cleaner balloon dilatation treatment will be performed with fiberoptic bronchoscope under general anesthesia in chronic bronchitis-predominant COPD cases, and the effectiveness and reliability of the procedure will be evaluated.
