Can air pollution monitoring improve exercise rehab?
Part of Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a phone app to check air pollution during outdoor walks helps people stick with their exercise rehab. If you have a long-term condition (like asthma, COPD, heart disease, or heart failure) or even if you don't, you may be able to join and wear a Fitbit to track your progress.
