About this study

In korea, it is not easy to practice standard pulmonary rehabilitation (PR). in this study, we'll educate PR to patients and make reservation for re-visiting outpatients clinics with PR diary. we want to confirm whether patients, who perform home based PR during more than 30 minutes in 3 days per week, present improved dyspnea score or quality of life compared with non-compliance group.

    In this study, we'll educate pulmonary rehabilitation to patients and make reservation for re-visiting outpatients clinics with PR diary after 8 weeks.

    we want to confirm whether patients, who perform home based PR during more than 30 minutes in 3 days per week, present improved dyspnea score or quality of life compared with non-compliance group.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from basline Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) assessment Test (CAT) at 8 weeks

    Self reported Patient-completed questionnaire assessing globally the impact of COPD (cough, sputum, dyspnea, chest tightness) on health status. Each item is scored 0-5, yielding a total between 0 and 40

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. change from 6 minutes walk test at 8 weeks

    This test measures the distance that a patient can quickly walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes (the 6MWD).

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. Change from the Short Form 36 Health survey (SF-36), version 2.0 at 8 weeks

    a 36-item, patient-reported survey of patient health. The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  3. Change from BODE index at 8 weeks

    BODE index include forced expiratory volume-one second, 6 minutes walk distance, modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale, body mass index. The BODE Index is used to predict mortality.

    Measured: 8 weeks
