Summary

This study aims to bring pulmonary rehabilitation—a proven treatment for COPD—to people living in rural areas who currently have no access to it. Researchers will test whether a home-based program can improve breathing, fatigue, and emotional well-being. About 306 adults aged 40 and older with COPD and living in rural communities will take part.
