Официальное название
Evaluation of a Diary for Assessing Treatment Outcomes in Patients With Pulmonary Infections Caused by Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM)
Обзор
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the correlation between patient-reported symptoms recorded in the diary and the microbiological and radiological disease course in patients with pulmonary infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM).
Подробное описание
This prospective observational study investigates the suitability of a symptom diary for assessing disease progression and treatment outcomes in patients with pulmonary infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). The aim of the study is to correlate the symptoms documented in the diary with microbiological and radiological parameters to gain a better understanding of the disease course and treatment effects. This may contribute to the development of a simpler and non-invasive tool that could improve patients' quality of life and enable more precise monitoring of disease progression.
This multicenter study plans to enroll 200 adult patients with confirmed pulmonary NTM infections who are capable of providing informed consent. Each patient will document daily symptoms - such as cough, body weight, temperature, and other complaints - in a symptom diary over a period of six months. In addition, clinical routine data, including microbiological and radiological findings, will be used without requiring any additional diagnostic procedures.
Вмешательства
- Другое Filling in a symptom diary
Each patient will receive a diary form in which they are asked to record their symptoms, body temperature, and body weight on a daily basis. This approach is intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the disease course and the impact of treatment over time. Depending on hospitalization status, disease severity, treatment progress, and national treatment guidelines, clinical, microbiological, and radiological follow-up assessments will be performed as part of routine care at intervals rang
