Study summary

The purpose of our study is to assess the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation on objective sleep quality in COPD patients.

Read the detailed description

COPD patients suffer from bad sleep quality. About 27 -50% are suffering from insomnia, and respiratory related symptoms are also inducing sleep disturbances. Recently, a correlation between altered sleep quality and low activity levels have been shown in this population. In primary insomnia, it is well established that physical activity has a positive impact on sleep quality.

The purpose of our study is to assess the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation on objective sleep quality in COPD patients.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Nov 2017 to primary completion in Aug 2022, 57 months.

Of 466 non-industry observational studies under Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 15 and three quarters within 64. This study's 57 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 586 studies reached it within 26 months; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 58.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 18, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
