Adults who \"regularly\" consume nicotine products as well as support persons were eligible to take part. As part of the measure, participants and supporters were offered daily support via app notifications, emails and/or WhatsApp. They were also made aware of existing stop-smoking programmes.

Of these, 550 individuals registered with a person of their choice to support them. Smokers were predominantly female (56.5%) and on average 42.9 (SD=13.2) years old. They came from all federal states in Germany, with a disproportionately high number from the federal states of Bremen, Schleswig-Holstein, Berlin, North Rhine-Westphalia, Hamburg and Bavaria in relation to the population distribution. Compared to a representative sample from a study by the Robert Koch Institute (2012), they reported a significantly higher subjective socio-economic status. Of the participants, 79.3% categorised their addiction as high.

Assessments of the level of knowledge and management that are comparable should benefit from structured, systematically developed questionnaires. These, however, have not been published in Germany.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A total of 310 patients with COPD were recruited from three pneumological practices and one hospital to develop the questionnaires. Based on statistical criteria and content assessments by medical specialists, two questionnaires on knowledge (17 questions) and self-management (25 questions) were developed by selecting and modifying questions from published studies and training programs. In addition, two short versions with 5 and 3 questions were created to enable a quick assessment of the patients' knowledge and self-management. All questionnaires also included a visual analogue scale for self-assessment of knowledge and self-management. The statistical procedures for systematically guided selection comprised correlation and regression analyses.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The questionnaires revealed considerable knowledge deficits in many patients and remarkably unsystematic, incoherent knowledge. The extent of this knowledge was negatively correlated with higher age and positively correlated with participation in training programs; this also applied to self-management. Correlations between the answers to the knowledge questions were higher in patients who had participated in training programs. The visual analogue scales for self-assessment of knowledge and management always correlated with the total number of correct answers.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>The questionnaires on knowledge and self-management in patients with COPD could be used in outpatient settings, including by non-medical staff, in order to quickly identify and correct deficits or as a reason to recommend training programs. The short versions and the analogue scales for self-assessment can give at least first hints. Potentially, training programs should focus more on promoting the coherence of knowledge through better understanding, as this presumably favors long-term knowledge. Older patients and those with a low level of education appear to be particularly in need of specially adapted training programs.</p>","PeriodicalId":20197,"journal":{"name":"Pneumologie","volume":" ","pages":"1014-1021"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140851032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Germany, the treatment with nitinol coils is the only method for endoscopic lung volume reduction in patients with positive collateral ventilation approved by the Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss. Therefore this procedure can be performed as standard-of-care and has assured reimbursement. After the production of the initial coils was stopped for years, when the only manufacturer had been bought by a large corporation, by the end of 2022 there was a new nitinol-coil, the so called Coil #4, becme available in the European market. The new Coil #4 has a different shape, different application catheter and the implantation procedure differs from that of the original product. We report our experience in endoscopic lung volume reduction with the new Coil #4 in three patients with emphysema. The procedure was performed without complications. All three of them showed improvement in lung function parameters meeting minimal clinically important differences. In two of three patients, we also saw clinically relevant improvement in the 6MWT distance und improvements in SGRQ und CAT-Score. In our opinion, this case series is just a prospect of the possibilities that come with the Coil #4. With due caution, we will continue to offer the Coil #4 as a treatment for selected patients under constant evaluation of the outcome until more data is available.</p>","PeriodicalId":20197,"journal":{"name":"Pneumologie","volume":" ","pages":"1030-1034"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141988646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
