Title: Evaluating the Cloud DX Platform as a Tool for Self-management and Asynchronous Remote-monitoring of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Brief Summary: This study is an open-label, prospective, single-centre, randomized controlled trial, containing both a quantitative and a qualitative component and using a mixed-methods design. The study evaluates the impact of Cloud Dx kit, a device that can allows patients to monitor and manage Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) at their home. The study evaluates whether using Cloud Dx improves patients' COPD symptoms, ability to manage COPD, and quality of life.

It is anticipated that there will be 123 participants enrolled in this study across two experimental arms and one control arm. Participants will be in the study for 6 months and the study will run for 1 year a Markham-Stouffville Hospital. The primary outcome is the participants' self-management and activation which will be measured using The Partners in Health (PIH) scale, a validated scale measuring the current status of self-management, with items on knowledge of the condition and skills to monitor and respond to symptoms.
