Digital Health Integration With Pulmonary Rehabilitation on Patients With Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease

Plain-language summary

It is an interventional study in which 60 COPD patients are estimated to enroll according to random allocation and divided into two groups. The study group will receive telepulmonary rehabilitation with usual care, while the control group will stick to usual care only. spirometry, including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced expiratory volume in six seconds (FEV6), the FEV1/FVC ratio, forced expiratory flow at 25-75% of pulmonary volume (FEF25-75%), and peak expiratory flow (PEF). Cognitive domains will be measured using smartphone tests. Physical performance will be evaluated using self-administered Timed Up and Go (Self TUG), five times sit to stand (Self 5×STS), and six-minute walk tests (Self 6MWT).
