Detect and Infer the Severity of COPD by Intelligent Terminal Device

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common respiratory diseases. Early detection and treatment are critical to prevent the deterioration of COPD. In this study, investigators aim to develop an algorithm that can detect and infer the severity level of COPD from physiological parameters and audio data which are collected by a wearable device. Investigators will complete the study in two stages: stage 1. A panel study to assess the ability to infer the severity of COPD by intelligent terminal devices; stage 2. Establish an algorithm that can detect and infer the severity level of COPD by intelligent terminal devices.

Detailed Description
-----------------
In this study, investigators aim to establish an algorithm that can detect and infer the severity level of COPD from physiological parameters, coughing sounds, and forceful blowing sounds data that are collected by wearable devices. This study is divided into two stages. Stage one: A panel study to assess the ability to infer the severity of COPD by intelligent terminal devices. 30 patients with stable COPD will be enrolled and will undergo pulmonary function tests, electrocardiogram, echocardiography measurement, blood gas analysis, six-minutes walking test (6MWT), and polysomnography. And they are required to fill in the questionnaires related to COPD every day. Physiological parameters including oxygen saturation, heart rate, sleep, and physical activity will be collected by a wearable device for 7-14 consecutive days. Coughing and forceful blowing sounds will be collected twice daily. The association between the severity of COPD and physiological parameters from the wearable device will be analyzed. Stage two: Establish an algorithm that can detect and infer the severity level of COPD by intelligent terminal devices. 200 patients with stable COPD and 200 non- COPD subjects will be enrolled. Questionnaires related to COPD will be collected, and subjects will undergo pulmonary function tests and electrocardiograms. Physiological parameters including oxygen saturation and heart rate will be continuously collected by a wearable device for about 3～7 days. Investigators will also collect coughing and forceful blowing sounds. A COPD diagnosis algorithm model based on physiological parameters and audio data of intelligent terminal devices will be established. The study protocol has been approved by the Peking University First Hospital Institutional Review Board (IRB) (2022-083). Any protocol modifications will be submitted for IRB review and approval.
