What\u2019s your opinion on new techniques which are helping to facilitate that?<\/span><\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">I was at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, where I directed a lung transplant program for 15 years, so obviously was involved in a great deal of critical research into transplantation. In terms of lung transplants, there are many aspects contributing to the increase in organ donation, including educating the public, and expanding the donor pool to include older patients, and the preservative solution used has improved so an organ can last longer outside the donor body than ever before.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eee6c8b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eee6c8b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;\">Another one of your areas of expertise is the management of COPD. What are the hottest news in this field?<\/span><\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">Yes, my main areas of interest are COPD and asthma. I have a large clinical research program conducting phase 3 and 4 studies in both asthma and COPD. COPD is a real hot topic now as we get ready to have biologic options for patients with the condition. COPD is an enormous problem in the US, especially in the South-East of the US where smoking rates are particularly high \u2013 the highest in the US. Just in my own state of Tennessee, the incidence is very high compared to the US in general. In turn COPD rates are very high here as well. My opinion is that we are in the era of Columbus in terms of COPD treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ecda722 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ecda722\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">By that I mean that historically we\u2019ve used inhalers, but now we have drugs with new mechanisms of action and new delivery systems. Now a fixed dose, triple drug therapy has come to the US market, within the last year, and there are also multiple LABA\/LAMA combinations and many more therapies to come. Triple drug therapy is going to have a significant impact \u2013 patients can now use a single device rather than three inhalers, so adherence improves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35491d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"35491d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">Historically we\u2019ve relied on patients to tell us whether they\u2019re taking their medications, but now we\u2019re doing a lot of research looking at new ways to improve compliance, and many of those involve smart electronic devices and smart phones. In the future, your inhaler will be able to report how frequently it\u2019s been utilized, whether the correct dose has been administered and, most importantly, give feedback to the HCP. There\u2019s lots and lots of knowledge on the horizon that will revolutionize the use of inhalers at minimal cost to the patient and HCP.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af12007 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"af12007\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">We\u2019re also doing a lot of work with biologic therapy. Recently one of the larger drug companies published data on biologics and exacerbations of COPD. The impressive feature of biologics is that they have the ability to improve lung function but also may have the potential to reduce flare-ups. So, I think there\u2019s going to be a change worldwide in how we treat COPD and asthma in the near future. There are currently four different biologics treatments already on the market for asthma, and many more in the pipeline, and I\u2019d expect to see biologics treatments for COPD coming soon. It\u2019s an exciting and unique time to be in pulmonary medicine. I believe that soon there are going to have to be niche sub-specialists who are very familiar with immunology and biologic drug classes.<\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e9a314 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8e9a314\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;\">Data on smoking in the US shows that the percentage of people smoking has declined from almost 21% in 2005 to 15.5% in 2015, but cigarette smoking is still the leading cause of preventable deaths in the country. In other countries there have been initiatives to reduce smoking via taxation etc, how do you think the US should approach this?<\/span><\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">The data in the US is very similar \u2013 there is a linear correlation between smoking tobacco and higher taxation. The states that have the highest taxation on tobacco tend to be in the east. The states that have the lowest taxation tend to be in the south-east, and there is a very clear correlation between taxation and prevalence. Taxation on tobacco products can be very effective at keeping prevalence down.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67498bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"67498bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">Another strong approach that I\u2019m an advocate for is improved pharmacologic coverage by insurers. Unfortunately, most insurance companies do not cover the cost of smoking cessation products such as nicotine replacement patches. I think that insurance companies should be lobbied to cover the cost of treatments for smoking cessation. At the moment if a patient can\u2019t afford nicotine replacement patches or other treatments they have a much lower likelihood of stopping smoking. Some insurance companies now are giving discounts on premiums to patients enrolled in tobacco cessation courses or if the patient makes a \u2018valiant attempt\u2019 at cessation, and I think that\u2019s a really good way to increase quit-rates. I think that counselling combined with pharmacologies is the best approach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45eab98 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"45eab98\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">I do agree that the Australian approach to taxation is helpful, but I also think that you need to look at secondary intervention in terms of helping people to quit and giving them affordable ways to quit. This has been a real focus for me as I live in the South, and Tennessee has one of the lowest rates of taxation, and hence is a state with very high tobacco use prevalence. The reality is that I see so many complications of tobacco in terms of stroke, myocardial infarction, and lung cancer, that this area of medicine is very important to me.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-50d5b71 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"50d5b71\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;\">The UK has reached a record low in terms of smoking rate, with over a million people reporting using e-cigarettes, which can be somewhat controversial. What are you take on them?<\/span><\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">I think the main problem with e-cigarettes is that the long-term health effects of these cigarettes remain unknown. There\u2019s a multi-center study looking at the long-term impact of their consumption, and until the effects are known I strongly advocate against using them to quit smoking. Yes, there are less carcinogens, but many still include high levels of nicotine. The way I see it, is that you\u2019re just switching out one addiction (ie. cigarettes), for another (ie. e-cigarette). I believe that when we see long term data we may find that e-cigarettes are no safer than regular cigarettes, but we don\u2019t know that at this time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-827942c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"827942c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;\">Regarding sleep disorders, another area of concern in Pulmonology, what\u2019s your evaluation on the recent practice of home tests for the diagnosis of sleep disorders?<\/span><\/p><p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">Definitely a hot topic. Any physician, such as a primary care physician, for example, can now order a home sleep test for a patient. However, I think the patient really loses out on some of the analysis and expertise when they\u2019re not seeing someone who is board-certified in sleep medicine. The reason I say that is that many of the home sleep tests lack data on aspects like leg movement, so you may not be able to make a diagnosis of periodic limb movement disorder with a home sleep test.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5e30b7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5e30b7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">In addition, there\u2019s a very crude analysis of REM and non-REM. \u00a0So, many times the home sleep study may not be adequate for a diagnosis of, for instance, narcolepsy or idiopathic hypersomnia. At the end of the day, home sleep tests are best when the health care provider is looking specifically for sleep apnoea. However, a home study can lack sensitivity for patients with mild sleep apnoea. Unfortunately, if you haven\u2019t seen a board-certified physician for the analysis you may not have been fully assessed for other diagnoses like idiopathic hypersomnia, and most importantly, may not get the degree of follow-up after starting CPAP if you have been diagnosed using a home sleep study.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7cfbad elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b7cfbad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: #5a5b5c; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">That being said, home studies are a trend that\u2019s not going away. Physicians have to be very selective about who gets a home sleep study. The health care provider has to be purely thinking about sleep apnoea and ensure that the patient is safe to be assessed in the home environment. If someone has significant heart or lung disease or underlying seizure disorder, those patients should all be assessed in a monitored sleep lab setting. Also, if you do a home study you want to make sure adequate follow-up is in place when the patient initiates therapy with positive pressure (ie CPAP or BPAP).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element
