Home-based exercise program for lung recovery after COPD flare-ups
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
