Cough Monitoring in COPD

Cough Monitoring in COPD:a Mixed Methods Observational Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Aug 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is an observational study designed to learn about symptoms of cough and how changes in cough may be associated with the beginning of a COPD exacerbation (acute worsening of symptoms. The Investigators are looking to recruit patients diagnosed with COPD who have had two or more exacerbations of their disease within the last year requiring treatment with antibiotics or corticosteroids. The main question aimed to be answered is whether the cough monitor can detect changes in a patient's clinical condition. Patients will be screened for participation in the study and a medical history will be taken alongside details of current medications, height, weight, vital signs as well and smoking status. The patients will be asked to complete 3 questionnaires and the cough monitor will be installed in the room within their home where they sleep. Patients will be asked to complete a daily diary for 90 to a maximum of 180 days and leave the monitor recording cough throughout this time.
