Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

assessment of BNP (Brain natriuretic peptide) pg/ml levels in patients with bronchiectasis and cardiovascular comorbidities.

Time frame
March 2023 to September 2023
2

Assessment of Quality of life in patients and control groups using The Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36)

The Short Form (36) Health Survey will be performed in both groups. The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability.

Time frame
March 2023 to September 2023

Secondary outcomes

1

Hospitalization frequency in patient group compared to control group.

Number of hospital admission in the last year will be compared in both groups.

Time frame
