Effects of Pulmonary Rehabilitation on Cognitive Function in Patients With Severe to Very Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Overview

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. It is a systemic disease which includes pulmonary, cardiac, muscular, digestive and cognitive impairments. Pulmonary rehabilitation is a symptomatic treatment to reduce dyspnea and functional incapacity. However, it effects on cognitive dysfunction are not well known. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of a comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation program on cognitive dysfunction in patients with severe to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment tool.

Study Type

  • Study Type: Observational
  • Study Design
    • Time Perspective: Prospective
  • Study Primary Completion Date: December 1, 2019

Interventions

  • Other: Pulmonary rehabilitation
    • See group description.

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Pulmonary rehabilitation
    • The whole population will benefit from a comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation program, including aerobic training, superior and inferior limb strength training, self-management and add-on to pulmonary rehabilitation as needed (i.e : electrical muscle stimulation, inspiratory muscle training, non-invasive ventilation, high flow nasal canula).

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Baseline cognitive function
    • Time Frame: Cognitive function is assessed at the beginning of the rehabilitation program : day 0
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool
  • Cognitive function after pulmonary rehabilitation
    • Time Frame: Cognitive function is assessed at the end of the rehabilitation program : day 60
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool
  • Cognitive function : follow up
    • Time Frame: Cognitive function is assessed 3 month after rehabilitation : day 150
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool
  • Change in cognitive function from baseline to the end of pulmonary rehabilitation
    • Time Frame: Change in cognitive function from baseline to the end of pulmonary rehabilitation is assessed with end of pulmonary rehabilitation minus baseline values (day 60 – day 0)
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool
  • Change in cognitive function from the end of pulmonary rehabilitation to 3 month of follow up
    • Time Frame: Change in cognitive function from the end of pulmonary rehabilitation to 3 month of follow up is assessed with the 3 month of follow minus the end of pulmonary rehabilitation values (day 150 – day 60)
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool

Secondary Measures

  • Anxiety and depression : baseline
    • Time Frame: Anxiety and depression are assessed at the beginning of the rehabilitation program : day 0
    • Anxiety and depression are assessed with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD).
  • Anxiety and depression : end of pulmonary rehabilitation
    • Time Frame: Anxiety and depression are assessed at the end of the rehabilitation program : day 60
    • Anxiety and depression are assessed with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD).
  • Anxiety and depression : follow up
    • Time Frame: Anxiety and depression are assesses 3 month after the end of pulmonary rehabilitation program : day 150
    • Anxiety and depression are assessed with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD).
  • Quality of life : baseline
    • Time Frame: Quality of life is assessed at the beginning of the rehabilitation program : day 0
    • Quality of life is assessed using the Saint Georges Respiratory Questionnaire
  • Quality of life : end of pulmonary rehabilitation
    • Time Frame: Quality of life is assessed at the end of the rehabilitation program : day 60
    • Quality of life is assessed using the Saint Georges Respiratory Questionnaire
  • Quality of life : follow-up
    • Time Frame: Quality of life is assessed 3 month after the end of the rehabilitation program : day 150
    • Quality of life is assessed using the Saint Georges Respiratory Questionnaire
  • Functional capacity (six-minute stepper test) : baseline
    • Time Frame: Functional capacity is assessed at the beginning of the rehabilitation program : day 0
    • Functional capacity is assessed with the six-minute stepper test
  • Functional capacity (six-minute stepper test) : end of pulmonary rehabilitation
    • Time Frame: Functional capacity is assessed at the end of the rehabilitation program : day 60
    • Functional capacity is assessed with the six-minute stepper test
  • Functional capacity (six-minute walk test) : baseline
    • Time Frame: Functional capacity is assessed at the beginning of the rehabilitation program : day 0
    • Functional capacity is assessed with the six-minute walk test
  • Adherence
    • Time Frame: Adherence is assessed at the end of the rehabilitation program : day 60
    • Adherence to the pulmonary rehabilitation program is assessed by the following equation : number of session performed divided by the number of scheduled sessions
  • Relation between the cognitive function and the respiratory function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second)
    • Time Frame: The relation is assessed between baseline demographic data at day 0
    • Cognitive function is assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Assessement tool and respiratory function is assessed with spirometric evaluation
