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.
