New clinic targets muscle loss in COPD patients to cut hospital stays
NCT ID NCT07059637
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study tests a new clinic designed to find and treat muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with COPD. About 80 adults hospitalized for COPD will join a team of lung doctors, nurses, and a pharmacist who will use CT scans and other tests to diagnose muscle loss and provide targeted treatment. The goal is to see if this approach improves muscle strength, reduces hospital visits and COPD flare-ups, and lowers the risk of death compared to standard care.
