What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the implementation of the INSPIRE program, which focuses on managing respiratory diseases in Botucatu. Participants aged 18 and older with respiratory symptoms will be invited to provide socioeconomic data and undergo evaluations for pulmonary function and tobacco exposure. Those with significant tobacco exposure will receive low-dose chest CT screening for lung cancer. The study will follow participants over five years to monitor health outcomes and improve access to respiratory care.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates include individuals aged 18 and older with respiratory symptoms and a history of smoking or passive exposure.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have respiratory symptoms or a history of tobacco exposure may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this program could enhance respiratory health management and access to care for individuals in Botucatu.
How similar studies have performed: Similar programs have shown promise in improving respiratory health outcomes, but this specific approach is novel in the local context.
