Acceptability of a digital pulmonary rehabilitation app as an adjunct or alternative to usual care for people with chronic lung diseases: A qualitative study of patients' views and experiences.
BackgroundCentre-PR may not be accessible for people living distant from PR centres. Remote digital PR may have equivalent benefits to centre-PR; however, previous trials were potentially biased towards digitally literate patients, and largely excluded participants with a preference for centre-PR. There is limited data on the real-world implementation of, and acceptability for, Digital-PR alone or as an adjunct to other models of PR.ObjectivesTo gather patients' views about the acceptability of Active+me REMOTE, a digital pulmonary rehabilitation app (Digital-PR).MethodsA qualitative exploratory study using semi-structured interviews with a subset (n = 15) of patients in a mixed method, feasibility study of a hybrid pulmonary rehabilitation, blending Digital-PR with other models of PR.
