The Effect of Home-Based Monitoring, Exercise Training

The Effect of Home-Based Monitoring, Counseling and Exercise Training Applied to Individuals With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Tele-Counselling Method on Repeated Hospitalization and Quality of Life of Individuals

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); From time to time, significant involvement in dusts or gases and abnormal disease outbreaks are observed, which are observed throughout life in the period when the cause has just emerged, interruption of air flow with disruptions in air flow, shortness of breath, increase in the amount of secretion. Directly or indirectly, very high costs are incurred in COPD care and promotion. While mild stages are treated without directed hospitalization, hospitalizations become more frequent as the disease progresses, and the duration of hospitalization in each acute attack increases compared to the next attack. Acute exacerbations of COPD negatively affect the rates of rehospitalization and emergency service admissions, and the living conditions of this condition, whose long-term cause of death and morbidity has not yet been revealed, do not lead to negative aspects. Exercise programs applied in chronic diseases should include stopping their illnesses, increasing sleep during the disease, stopping inflammatory acuteness, and in addition to treatment, the rest of the patients should be normal. It has been stated that it is more effective than home-based hospital system applications in pulmonary regulation, and it has been taken positively from applications compatible with the basic field, as everywhere in the world. In this direction, the effect of home-based monitoring, education and exercise training applied to individuals with COPD via tele-consultancy method on repeated hospitalization and quality of life is revealed.
