Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation For Patients With Chronic Lung Diseases (TELE-PRIME)

18 de junho de 2026 atualizado por: Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center

Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation to Improve Adherence and Management of Patients With Chronic Lung Diseases

Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key treatment for lung diseases, but many patients struggle to attend sessions due to travel distances, physical limitations, or logistical barriers. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a tele-pulmonary rehabilitation (TPR) program can improve the rates of treatment initiation and adherence among patients with chronic lung diseases compared to traditional, center-based pulmonary rehabilitation. Additionally, the study will assess improvements in quality of life, physical symptoms, and safety in both groups.

This study will enroll 90 patients from two medical centers in Israel (Tel Aviv and Barzilai). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:

  1. The control group will receive usual care with a referral by a pulmonologist to standard pulmonary rehabilitation at a medical center.
  2. The intervention group will participate in a supervised remote tele-rehabilitation program using a dedicated application and remote monitoring.

Descrição detalhada

Data collection:

Participants will be followed for 12 months after enrollment. Baseline data will include demographic characteristics, medical history and pulmonary function tests. Follow-up phone calls will be conducted at 1.5, 3, and 6 months to assess initiation of pulmonary rehabilitation, adherence, safety events, symptoms and healthcare utilization. An additional follow-up assessment will be conducted at 12 months after enrollment. Patient-reported outcomes will include respiratory symptom burden assessed using the Chronic Airways Assessment Test (CAAT), anxiety and depression assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), knowledge assessed using the Lung Information Needs Questionnaire (LINQ), and patient satisfaction assessed using the Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE). Adherence to tele-pulmonary rehabilitation will also be monitored using participation logs from the rehabilitation sessions.

Sample Size Calculation:

Based on prior studies, adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation is expected to be approximately 33% in the control group. The researchers hypothesize that tele-pulmonary rehabilitation will increase adherence to 66%. To detect this difference with a power of 80% and a significance level of 0.01, 35 participants are required in each group. Assuming a 20-25% loss of follow up, the total planned sample size is 90 participants (45 patients per group).

Randomization:

A total of 90 participants meeting the study inclusion criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control group. Randomization will be stratified by the participating centers. Within each stratum, treatment assignments will be determined using a computer-generated random allocation sequence utilizing variable block sizes of two or four. To prevent selection bias and maintain strict allocation concealment, the randomization schedule will be generated and housed within a secure, centralized electronic system managed exclusively by an independent study coordinator. The clinical research team, including investigators responsible for patient enrollment and clinical care, will remain entirely removed from sequence generation and block determination. Allocation will be revealed sequentially on a patient-by-patient basis only after a participant's eligibility is confirmed and the index visit disposition is finalized.

Sem intervenção: Control
Participants in the control group will be sent back to their referring physicians with a recommendation to initiate pulmonary rehabilitation as soon as possible, signed by a pulmonologist. The treating physicians will also be notified.
Experimental: Tele-Rehabilitation
Participants will undergo a 12 weeks tele-rehabilitation program using a dedicated application. The intervention consists of 24 online sessions (twice weekly) led by a senior respiratory physiotherapist in groups of up to 5 participants.
Outro: Tele-Rehabilitation

Participants will undergo a 12 weeks tele-rehabilitation program using a dedicated application. The intervention consists of 24 online sessions (twice weekly) led by a senior respiratory physiotherapist in groups of up to 5 participants.

The sessions include:

  1. Supervised Exercise: Aerobic and resistance training using household items, stretching, and breathing techniques.
  2. Remote Monitoring: Vital signs (heart rate and oxygen saturation) monitored every 10-15 minutes via a study-provided pulse oximeter.
  3. Comprehensive Education: Guidance on lifestyle, nutrition, and physical activity.
  4. Digital Support: The app provides activity tracking, symptom logging, session reminders, and guided home exercises.

At the end of each session, every participant receives a personalized exercise plan based on their performance and preferences, which is displayed in the app.
