In the case of the RR telemedicine provides a new tool.\n\nCOPD disease very prevalent and chronic it is generator of a high economic cost. The possibility of universalizing the rehabilitation treatment would involve a potential savings in this population group ,another potential benefit is as translational trial as part of the development of a new technology and its possible application to clinical practice.\n\nGeneral objective: to determine whether a program of TeleRehabilitation (TeleRR)- Respiratory Rehabilitation Maintenance (RRm) after an intensive initial program of RR, is a useful intervention against the current usual strategy (intensive program of RR and a recommendation of not protected maintenance program).\n\nMethod: clinical trial , open, randomized, multicenter, parallel group, and focus of superiority with a strategy of Telerehabilitation program respiratory of maintenance after an intensive RR for 8 weeks in patients diagnosed with grade moderately - severe stable COPD (Bode 3-7).', 'detailedDescription': '1. SELECTION AND WITHDRAWAL OF SUBJECTS\n\n 1.1 INCLUSION CRITERIA\n\n To be eligible to participate in this study, subjects must meet the following inclusion criteria:\n\n Patients diagnosed with COPD aged less than 75 years BODE index of 3-7 clinical stability, understood as not having an exacerbation (\\*) of the COPD and not require treatment with antibiotics, corticoids systemic and/or hospitalization, at least 1 month prior to inclusion in the study. You have been reported to the subject and has been given sufficient time and opportunity to consider their participation has given its consent in writing. Able to use technology the subject is willing and is able to meet all the requirements of the study.\n\n (\\*) Exacerbation: Exacerbation means worsening of two or more of the following main symptoms for at least 2 consecutive days:\n\n Increase in volume of sputum, sputum Purulence ,Dyspnea\n\n or\n\n • Worsening of any main symptom along with one of the following symptoms for at least 2 consecutive days.\n * Resfriado (rinorrea y/o congestión nasal)\n * Fever without any other cause\n * Cough\n * Wheezing\n\n 1.2 Exclusion criteria\n\n Patients who have any of the following exclusion criteria may not be included in the trial:\n\n • Presence of osteo-muscular pathology that limit or preclude the exercises. Presence of heart disease which hinders exercise. Patients with bronchiectasis or other respiratory disorders other than COPD. Comorbidity who hinders or blocks the making of respiratory rehabilitation of maintenance program. Less than 2 years life expectancy.\n\n Any unstable medical or psychiatric process or substance abuse which, in the opinion of the investigator, would affect the ability of the patient to complete the study or impede their participation in the same\n\n Withdrawal of subjects and procedures criteria\n\n Patients may leave the study at any time. Each month the researcher will check filling in each patient assigned to the experimental group respiratory rehabilitation program. If a patient does not fill this program for 2 consecutive months, excluding impossibility for clinical situation and medical criteria, will be removed from the study.\n\n In addition respiratory rehabilitation maintenance in both treatment groups will be suspended if any adverse events that justify it at the discretion of the investigator.\n\n If so, the follow-up of the patients will continue also to analyze the results according to an intention of treatment strategy.La retirada de los sujetos así como sus motivos quedará reflejada tanto en el historial clínico como en el cuaderno de recogida de datos.\n\n Any death that occurs during the performance of the EC must be notified immediately to the promoter and the competent Ethics Committee.\n\n Withdrawals of subjects is not replaced\n2. PROTOCOL TREATMENT\n\nThe information sheet will be delivered to the patient all of those potentially eligible patients according to the inclusion criteria marked and no exclusion criteria (point 6) let them the time needed to read the document and make all ask them as necessary. If the patient decides to participate in the trial, it will ask you to sign the informed consent form.\n\nSELECTION VISIT\n\nThis visit will include the test data for patients diagnosed with COPD, which includes: "history: on the scale of MRC Dyspnoea score" "physical examination: weight, height, body mass index, brachial perimeter crease triceps and quadriceps strength " X-ray of thorax and electrocardiogram respiratory function tests (spirometry, Lung volumes, transfer to CO, maximum respiratory pressure and blood gas capacity) maximum questionnaire of quality of life-related lower-limb exercise test with the Health: CRQ (self-administered version), and SF-36 test of 6 minutes 6 minutes walking test with assessment of breathlessness to the effort using the Borg scale at the beginning and at the end of six minutes the BODE index calculation test\n\nCriteria of Inclusion / Exclusion criteria, information to the patient and informed consent signature, indicating date\n\nOn this visit the code of patient will be assigned to each of the patients who accept to participate in the trial and that sign the informed consent\n\nINTENSIVE REHABILITATION (RRi) (8 weeks- ± 4 days)\n\nOnce signed the informed consent (CI) the patient will receive an initial program of intensive RR (hospital-based program standard according to usual practice) participate in this phase all the patients in the study and will receive equal treatment. This program will be taught in groups of 5 patients (approx) and will last a total of 8 weeks. Patients will have to go to the hospital 3 hours/d 3 days per week where respiratory rehabilitation program will be intensive.\n\nThe program will include the following sections.\n\n1. Education: 4 sessions on knowledge of the disease and medication management learning.\n2. General physiotherapy: teach to make the diaphragmatic breathing, drainage of secretions (if applicable) and relaxation techniques.\n3. Muscle training:\n\n3.a.-upper extremity muscles: will be weight-bearing exercises. The initial charge will be 500gr and will increase progressively depending on the tolerance of the patient. The training time will be 30 minutes.\n\n3.b.-lower extremity muscles: will be made with an antispasm. The initial charge will be 50% of the maximum load in the progressive stress test. The workload according to the tolerance of the patient will subsequently increase. The training time will be also of 30 minutes\n\nMAINTENANCE CALENDAR (Visits)\n\nRANDOMIZATION visit (V0) (assignment to the maintenance group)\n\nOnce completed the intensive treatment of RR, that same day, all patients participating in the trial will be distributed randomly to one of the two groups of RR for maintenance treatment:\n\n-GR1 (TeleRR): will receive an RR of maintenance program with use of support for telemedicine (TeleRR) all of them will be prescribed treatment program at his own home by the doctor, initially very similar to the received in the hospital phase.\n\nThem will be provided the material for the realization of the programme of RR: exercise bike, weights / cufflinks mobile device (PDA/Smartphone) + Pulse Oximeter.\n\nYou will indicate them to perform exercises prescribed by your doctor as treatment and that they complete training on the mobile device data. The patient should be sending the data of all the days that are scheduled training exercises once have been completed.\n\n-GR2 (control): receive a recommendation from a standard respiratory rehabilitation program with a minimum monitoring, similar to routine clinical practice.\n\nFOLLOW UP VISITS\n\nIn total and after completion of the period of intensive RR, will be planned 3 follow-up visits that may be NO face-to-face or face-to-face and/or ON - LINE:\n\nVisit 1 - tracking: 3 months (± 1 week) after the last visit of randomization (V0).\n\nVisit 2 - follow-up: 9 months (± 2 weeks) after the last visit of randomization (V0).\n\nVisit 3 - follow-up: 12 months (± 2 weeks) after the last visit of randomization (V0), ending the involvement of the patient in the study\n\nNON FACE TO FACE MONITORING\n\nFor all visits and patients the participants held a non-contact clinical follow-up through information systems corresponding in each of the participating centres. Information to pick up will be:\n\nIf there has been a neglect of the RR maintenance, and if it was so, what have been the causes. If there is a hospital income since the last visit if there is an entry in the emergency room since the last visit If there are visits to unscheduled primary care by exacerbation\n\nFACE TO FACE VISITS\n\nIn addition to tracking is not face-to-face, there will be a face-to-face follow-up extraordinary for participating in the trial and that will depend on the group that has been assigned the patient in which the following tests will be carried out:\n\n\\- Visit 1 -: 3 months (± 1 week) after the last visit of randomization (V0).\n\nExperimental Group GR1:\n\n* Physical examination: weight, height and body mass index.\n* Respiratory function tests (spirometry, Lung volumes, transfer to CO, maximum respiratory pressure and blood gas capacity) quality of life health-related questionnaires: CRQ (self-administered version), and SF-36\n* Six minutes walking test, assessment of breathlessness to the effort using the Borg scale at the beginning and at the end of six minutes the BODE index calculation test and adverse events or adverse reactions that have been able to present during the period since the previous visit\n\nVisit 2 - follow-up: 9 months (± 2 weeks) after the last visit of randomization (V0):\n\nExperimental Group GR1 :\n\nPhysical examination: weight, height and body mass index.
