Mounting evidence indicates that out-of-pocket costs for prescription medications, particularly among low- and middle-income patients with chronic diseases, are imposing financial burden, reducing medication adherence, worsening health outcomes. This problem is exacerbated by a paucity of generic alternatives prevalent lung such as asthma obstructive pulmonary disease, well high-cost medicines rare cystic fibrosis. Affordability access challenges especially salient in the United States,...
Research in respiratory, sleep, and critical care medicine has historically been the domain of scientists clinicians attempting to understand pathophysiological mechanisms consequences disease an effort develop effective treatments. This traditional approach placing scientific rigor before patient's reality is changing. There growing recognition importance integrating patient perspectives (e.g., preferences, expectations, expanded definitions what constitutes "successful" outcomes) into...
Background: There is increasing interest in the use of home-based monitoring people with chronic lung diseases to improve access care, support patient self-management, and facilitate collection information for clinical care research. However, integration into research settings requires careful consideration test performance other attributes. no published guidance from professional respiratory societies advance science disease. Methods: An international multidisciplinary panel 32 clinicians,...
Patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) represents a paradigm shift in methods aimed to create the body of evidence that supports clinical practice and informs health care decisions. PCOR integrates patients other key stakeholders including family members, policy makers, clinicians, patient advocates advocacy groups as partners throughout all stages process. The importance has received increased recognition, yet there is little available help guide researchers interested design conduct...
Progressive scarring of the lung, also termed pulmonary fibrosis, has become focus many basic, translational and clinical investigations throughout world. To date, this research revealed much needed information about epidemiology pathogenesis fibrosing disorders, with particular attention to idiopathic fibrosis (IPF), most common interstitial pneumonias devastating due its poor prognosis.1Lederer DJ Martinez FJ Idiopathic fibrosis.N Engl J Med. 2018; 378: 1811-1823Crossref PubMed Scopus...
The ability to develop discrete areas of tissue fibrosis or scarring represents a normal physiologic response injury that is necessary for the maintenance integrity and organ function. In contrast, uncontrolled, dysregulated fibroproliferation abnormal matrix deposition/remodeling results in dysfunction, regardless initiating event.1Rockey D.C. Bell P.D. Hill J.A.

This consensus conference report summarizes discussions on sleep apnea care and management. Our goal is to simplify the journey optimize success for individuals at risk of obstructive facilitate diagnostics, monitoring communication among entire healthcare team including patients, primary physicians, specialists, dentists other key providers. The statement identifies five problems or unmet needs contemplates four potential future directions.
The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the need for inexpensive, easy-to-use, rapidly mass-produced resuscitation devices that could be quickly distributed in areas of critical need. In-line miniature ventilators based on principles fluidics ventilate patients by automatically oscillating between forced inspiration and assisted expiration as airway pressure changes, requiring only a continuous supply pressurized oxygen. Here, we designed three ventilator models to operate specific ranges along...
