Digital app may bring lung rehab to local clinics
NCT ID NCT07687836
First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a digital tool called TELEREHAPP can help physiotherapists in private clinics provide pulmonary rehabilitation for people with chronic lung diseases like COPD. Researchers will analyze data already collected from physiotherapists and patients to see how often the tool was used, how easy it was to use, and whether patients showed any improvement. The goal is to find new ways to make lung rehab more accessible outside of specialized centers.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TELEREHAPP digital application
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that a simple digital tool helps more people with lung disease access rehabilitation closer to home.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, retrospective study without a control group, so it cannot prove the tool improves health outcomes. Results may not apply to all settings.
