Article Synopsis
- Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) helps improve the health and well-being of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but its benefits can fade over time without ongoing support.
- Telerehabilitation (TR) is being explored as a convenient alternative to traditional PR, but previous reviews haven't looked at its long-term effectiveness.
- This systematic review found that TR can help maintain health-related quality of life and exercise capacity for 6-12 months after initial PR, but more high-quality studies are needed to fully understand its long-term benefits for the broader population.
