Telehealth education to help people with COPD after a hospital stay
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a telehealth (video/phone) education program can help people with COPD better manage their health after a hospital flare-up. It may reduce the chance of needing to return to the hospital soon after discharge.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult age 18 or older

This trial studies a coordinated (multidisciplinary) care program for people with severe COPD who were recently hospitalized for worsening breathing symptoms. It may help reduce future flare-ups and improve day-to-day breathing by coordinating multiple types of care in a COPD center.
This study tests a virtual-first program for COPD that uses check-ins and support from your care team, all done from home. It aims to reduce emergency visits and heart-related problems.
This trial tests whether a breathing and exercise program done at home can lower COPD flare-ups and the chance of needing hospital care. It may help people with more severe COPD manage breathlessness and stay stable.
This study tests a home-based program that provides education and activity guidance for people with COPD who have been hospitalized in the past year. It aims to help you understand your condition better and stay active safely.
This study tests whether a supervised home-based exercise program, delivered via video calls, can help people recovering from a COPD flare-up feel stronger and breathe easier, compared with usual care. If you join, you'll have regular online sessions with a rehab team from home.
This study tests a software program that uses machine learning to predict if you might have a COPD flare-up or get worse within 60 days after leaving the hospital. The goal is to help doctors provide better follow-up care and reduce emergency visits.
