NCT02499653

Brief Summary

This study aims to analyze the impact of a brief psychological support intervention in the promotion of the adherence to Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV) among people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The investigators expect to see a positive impact of this intervention on both physical and psychological well-being, and consequently, a reduction of health costs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in Quality of Life (QoL) in COPD patients at 3, 6 and 12 months as measured by EuroQoL (EQ5D)

    EuroQoL or EQ5D, a simple and short questionnaire consists of two distinct sections: the first in which there are five items (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain / discomfort, anxiety / depression), concerning the status of health of the subject, which is required to indicate the severity level; the second section includes a visual-analogue scale instead represented graphically as a thermometer graduated from 0 (worst possible health status) to 100 (best possible health state), on which the respondent must indicate the level of perceived health at the time. All subjects will be assigned to psychometric assessment.

    Baseline + After 3, 6 and 12 months following the recruitment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change from baseline in acceptance NIV in COPD patients at 3, 6 and 12 months as measured by weekly means and standard deviations of hours of use of Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV)

    Baseline + After 3, 6 and 12 months following the recruitment

  • Change from baseline in adherence NIV in COPD patients at 3, 6 and 12 months as measured by a modified version of the Beliefs About Medicine Questionnaire (BMQ)

    Baseline + After 3, 6 and 12 months following the recruitment
