New lung master device aims to boost breathing in COPD and asthma patients
NCT ID NCT06524856
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a device called the Lung Master, which is meant to increase lung capacity by practicing slow, deep breaths. Twenty adults with or without breathing conditions will use the device daily at home for one month. Researchers will measure lung function before and after to see if it helps.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Lung Master (Pulmonary Exerciser) device
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a simple, at-home way to improve breathing for people with COPD or asthma.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early study with only 20 people. The device is not FDA-approved, and results may not apply to everyone.
