U.S., June 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07003399) titled 'Diaphragmatic Function and Respiratory Drive in OSA and COPD' on May 15.
Brief Summary: This cross-sectional observational study aims to assess the diaphragmatic morphofunction and respiratory drive characteristics among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), overlap syndrome (OS), and healthy controls. Using ultrasound imaging and surface diaphragm electromyography (EMGdi), the study will explore group differences in diaphragmatic morphology, function, and respiratory drive indicators, and evaluate their clinical significance in disease differentiation and severity assessment.
