Brief Summary:
The overall goal of this study is to compare the impact of a new Internet Dyspnea Self-Management Program eDSMP with an established face-to-face Dyspnea Self-Management Program DSMP in patients with COPD The primary aim of the study is to test the following two hypotheses 1 The eDSMP and the DSMP will have comparable improvements in the primary outcomes of shortness of breath dyspnea with activities of daily living ADL exercise adherence and performance and pulmonary exacerbations frequency and duration at 3 and 6 months 2 The eDSMP and the DSMP will have comparable improvements in the secondary outcomes of perception of support self-efficacy for exercise and managing dyspnea and health resource utilization at 3 and 6 months This study is a randomized longitudinal repeated measures design with measurement times at 0 3 and 6 months
Detailed Description:
Despite optimal medical treatment people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD continue to experience dyspnea or shortness of breath This study will evaluate two different ways to provide education and support to help patients manage their shortness of breath One program will be conducted in a face-to-face setting and a second through the Internet The main difference between the two programs is the way they are administered The education exercise and monitoring components are the same The overall goal of this study is to find out whether the two programs are comparable in their effect on shortness of breath dyspnea with activities of daily living exercise adherence and performance and pulmonary exacerbations frequency and duration at 3 and 6 months Perception of support self-efficacy for exercise and managing dyspnea and health resource utilization will also be measured at 3 and 6 months This study is a randomized longitudinal repeated measures design with measurement times at 0 3 and 6 months
