The Boston-based device developer is conducting a trial for the RejuvenAir system for chronic bronchitis. In July, CSA Medical announced that the pivotal SPRAY-CB trial (NCT03893370) for the RejuvenAir system had enrolled the planned 210 participants.

The primary endpoint of the sham-controlled trial is the improvement in overall patient health measured as the change in the St George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score from baseline to 12 months. A low SGRQ score signifies better health. Secondary outcome measures include the reduction of cough and sputum at 12 months compared to baseline.
