Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Effects Of Bronchodilator Therapy On Respiratory And Autonomic Function In Patients With Familial Dysautonomia (NCT NCT01987219)

NCT ID: NCT01987219

Last Updated: 2016-06-02

Results Overview

FVC is a measure of the amount of air exhaled, and is measured in liters of air per second. The percentage in the change in the amount of air exhaled from baseline, measured in liters of air per second. Increase in the percentage of air exhaled from baseline indicates improvement in respiratory function.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre and 30 minutes post study drug administration

Population: Per protocol

FVC is a measure of the amount of air exhaled, and is measured in liters of air per second. The percentage in the change in the amount of air exhaled from baseline, measured in liters of air per second. Increase in the percentage of air exhaled from baseline indicates improvement in respiratory function.
