A Home-Based Multimedia Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program Improves Clinical Symptoms and Physical Performance of Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Home-based pulmonary rehabilitation can decrease symptoms in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation by instructive multimedia in the form of videos and flip charts on clinical symptoms and e...

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation by instructive multimedia in the form of videos and flip charts on clinical symptoms and exercise performance in COPD patients. An eight-week home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program was performed with twenty COPD patients older than 60 years of age with moderate to severe stages. They were separated into two groups: a multimedia group (<i>n</i> = 10) and a control group, which was only provided with telephone monitoring (<i>n</i> = 10). Clinical symptoms were measured by using the clinical COPD questionnaire (CCQ), and exercise performance was measured using a six-minute walk test (6MWT) and an upper-lower limb muscle strengthening test. After 8 weeks, the results showed that both groups showed a statistically significant decrease in the CCQ <i>(p</i> < 0.05). The multimedia group showed a statistically significant increase in the lower-limb muscle strengthening <i>(p</i> < 0.05), while the control group was not found to show a statistically significant increase in the lower-limb muscle strengthening. Therefore, a pulmonary rehabilitation program using multimedia at home can lessen symptoms and improve exercise performance in COPD patients.Anoma SantiworakulNitita Piya-amornphanNetchanok JianramasMDPI AGarticlehome-based pulmonary rehabilitationchronic obstructive pulmonary diseaseexercise capacityMedicineRENInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, Vol 18, Iss 11479, p 11479 (2021)
