Title: Evidence Based Training and Physical Activity With an E-health Program - a New Method for People With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) to Become More Physically Active.
Brief Summary: The main aim of the project in this application is two-fold. First we will explore and describe facilitators and barriers for being physically active and perform physical training for people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD (Step 1). Secondly, with user involvement, we will develop and evaluate a novel e-health program with a training module and an evidence-based educational component, the rEACH-COPD e-health program with the aim to increase the understanding and management of the disease and to facilitate every-day living with COPD (Step 2-3).

According to the guidelines of the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare (SoS), physiotherapy led exercise is an important part of rehabilitation for people with COPD. The e-health training program will follow evidence-based guidelines, i.e. recommendations from SoS and the American College of Sport Medicine (ACSMS).

Offering individualized and evidence-based training will increase adherence to training. With regular physical activity and exercise there is a potential to improve health-related quality of life, physical capacity, activity and participation in every day life in people with COPD.

By an improved health, physical function and quality of life a decreased use of health care is expected. Thus, this program may, in the long term, contribute to reduced costs for the society.
