Effect on Quality of Life of Adapted Information in Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Chronic Respiratory Disease Patients
Condition: Chronic Respiratory Disease
MeSH terms: Respiratory Tract Diseases; Respiration Disorders
Study type: Interventional

Summary: 
      The purpose of the clinical study is to study the effect of health-related quality of Life of
      information aimed at reducing the impact of a personality trait (openness to experiences)
      identified as a risk of non-response to pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic
      respiratory diseases. This study will determine if a specific information focusing on
      characteristics of openness to experiences personality trait will lead to better benefits
      than a general information.
    

Detailed description: 
      According to the Five Factor Model, personality is made of five dimensions present in varying
      degrees in individuals and influencing their behavior and life experiences. Several studies
      showed that some personality traits, according to their level, may positively or negatively
      influence the quality of life. They can also have an impact on the benefits obtained at the
      end of one treatment. In the particular context of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) which is one
      of the most efficient treatment in respiratory diseases, it has been showed that with a
      classical support, higher scores for openness to experiences represent a risk factor for
      non-response in PR on quality of life (i.e. no improvement). Several authors showed that
      adapted interventions (ex: simple information booklets), based on personality traits, can
      enhance the effectiveness of the intervention.

      Considering that in chronic respiratory diseases, openness to experiences when it is more
      marked represents a risk of not improving the quality of life following a PR program, the
      idea of offering information in line with the characteristics of these people (i.e., search
      for novelties, autonomy, broad and varied interests, etc.) seems relevant and feasible.

      The investigators hypothesize that the patients receiving an adapted information aimed at
      reducing the impact of a personality trait (openness to experiences) will better improve
      their quality of life in comparison with the patients receiving a neutra information.

      The main objective is to assess the impact of life of an adapted information during pulmonary
      rehabilitation on quality in patients with chronic respiratory diseases.
