How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Comparator

The investigator provide conventional-treatment to subjects when distributing respiratory rehabilitation education leaflets, Investigators explain the leaflets and self-practice until the subjects fully understand them. Compactor conducts respiratory rehabilitation treatment for 12 weeks according to the following procedures at home

☞ The investigator shall contact the subject every two weeks during the respiratory rehabilitation period and encourage them to perform respiratory rehabilitation treatment according to the assigned group. Subjects perform respiratory rehabilitation exercises at home.

They have to visit hospital at 8 weeks (visit 3) and 12 weeks (visit 4) and then examine the factor of the outcome measure following the clinical protocol

Active Comparator: subjects who are trained in accordance with the conventional manual treatment of Respiratory rehabilitation in the clinical institution and taking care home-based management.

The manual contents

  • method of the conventional rehabilitation treatment
  • intensity for aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise
Other Names:
  • the conventional rehabilitation treatment
Experimental: Experimental treatment

Subjects install software as a medical device for clinical trials on smart-phones, so that the subject can perform respiratory rehabilitation treatment at home.

Respiratory rehabilitation treatment for 12 weeks

☞ Respiratory rehabilitation treatment using a mobile-based software, consists of aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise, and the subject performs themselves

They have to visit hospital at 8 weeks (visit 3) and 12 weeks (visit 4) and then examine the factor of the outcome measure following the clinical protocol

Experimental: subjects who use the software as a home-based Digital Respiratory Rehabilitation software

It is intended for subjects who are prescribed a respiratory rehabilitation exercise to improve their physical condition. The software also helps them to do self-rehabilitation exercise.

Other Names:
  • Respiratory Rehabilitation Software

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The 6-minute walking distance (6 minute walking distance, 6MWD) change amount(in meters) at 12 weeks after respiratory rehabilitation compared to the baseline.
Time Frame: 12 weeks
the primary efficacy variable is the change of respiratory function parameters as a 6-minute walking distance(6MWT) in meters(m) at V4 compared with the baseline(V2). The value of 6MWD at V2 adjust as the value of covariate for statistical significance between the groups.

12 weeks
The number of times in the use of medical support (days of emergency room visits)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
the efficacy variable is number of days of hospitalization, number of days of emergency room visits for 12 weeks compared with the baseline(V2). Statistical significance of changes within each group is tested by the Paired -test or Wilcoxon signed rank test.
12 weeks
Abnormal case (safety evaluation variable)
Time Frame: 8 and 12 weeks

The analysis of abnormal case analyzes all abnormal cases(TEAE) that occurre after the application of medical devices for clinical trials.

Descriptive statistics(the number of subjects, incidence, and occurrence of coded adverse events) are presented by group. Treatment Emergency Adverse Event (TEAE), Adverse Device Effect (ADE), and Serious Adverse Event (SAE), and the difference in ratio between groups analyzes through Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. The factors are coded according to SOC and PT using MedDRA. In addition, a detailed list is presented for individual subjects who have experienced significant abnormalities.

8 and 12 weeks
Patient Global Assessment (PGA) evaluation for 12 weeks after respiratory rehabilitation management
Time Frame: 12 weeks
the scores of experimental group's Patient Global Assessment (PGA) evaluation using medical device for 12 weeks. PGA is assessed by a single question ranged from 0 to 10. the higher score means the greater patient's satisfaction.
12 weeks
Evaluation of the number of treatments during the respiratory rehabilitation management period (number of times)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
the experimental group's the number of treatments, using medical device for 12 weeks represents descriptive statistics (number of subjects, average, standard deviation, median, minimum, and maximum value)
12 weeks
