Clinical Trial: Multimodal Assessment of NMES Effects on Respiratory and Peripheral Muscles in COPD

U.S., Nov. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07910006) titled 'Multimodal Assessment of NMES Effects on Respiratory and Peripheral Muscles in COPD' on Oct. 26.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if targeted neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can treat respiratory and peripheral muscle weakness in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does targeted NMES improve diaphragm thickening fraction and excursion as measured by diaphragm ultrasound?

* What are the comparative effects of targeted NMES on plasma biomarkers, specifically Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)? Researche...
