Examining the Effects of a Remote Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program in the Severe Asthma Population.
Sponsor: University of Saskatchewan
Summary
This is a randomized control trial evaluating the effect of a novel mobile application-delivered pulmonary rehabilitation program in adult severe asthma patients. The intervention will include eight weeks of exercise videos that progress in difficulty, as well as asthma-specific educational content. The primary outcome measure is change in functional exercise capacity as measured by six-minute walk distance. Secondary outcome measures will include evaluation of overall feasibility, and change in CPET parameters such as VO2max. Change in asthma control questionnaire (ACQ), asthma quality of life questionnaire (AQLQ) and PRAISE self-efficacy score will also be evaluated.
