Title: Long-Term Integrated Telerehabilitation of COPD Patients. A Multi-Center Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary: This research project aims to conduct a three-arm multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) on an innovative telerehabilitation intervention for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The overall purpose of the RCT is to demonstrate whether long-term integrated telerehabilitation involving exercise training at home, telemonitoring, and education/self-management will prevent hospital readmissions, thus reducing healthcare costs, for patients with COPD, and will improve patient status and quality of life.
