Summary

Primary:

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the Aerobika® device on the aerosol deposition pattern of concomitant inhalation medication using FRI.

Secondary:

The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the Aerobika® device on the airway volume (iVaw), lung and lobe volume (iVlobes), airway resistance (iRaw), hyperinflation, airway wall thickness (iVaww), blood vessel density (iVbv), and air trapping using FRI.

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
  • COPD

Interventions

DEVICE

Aerobika® Device

For a period of 15 +/- 3 days subjects will use the Aerobika® device before administration of their stable standard of care treatment regimen (i.e. study patients should use the device before each inhalation medication administration, with a minimum use of the device of twice daily).

RADIATION

HRCT scans

A HRCT scan at Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) and Total Lung Capacity (TLC) will be taken on visit 1, and visit 3. An upper airway (UA) scan will be taken on visit 1.
