Integration of device-connected applications enables accurate remote monitoring of physiological parameters in pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) for COPD.
Home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (HBPR) models show high patient retention, satisfaction, and usability, supporting scalability.
Telerehabilitation approaches, including smartphone app-based and eHealth tools, demonstrate clinical improvements in exercise capacity, symptoms, and quality of life.
