NCT ID NCT07539571
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week telerehabilitation program—supervised resistance and endurance training done at home—can improve exercise capacity and quality of life in 80 adults with bronchiectasis. Participants are randomly assigned to either the training program or usual care. Researchers will measure walking distance, lung function, symptoms, and safety. The goal is to see if remote training is a practical and effective option for this condition.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- telerehabilitation (supervised resistance and endurance training)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a convenient home-based exercise program to improve fitness and daily life for people with bronchiectasis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program requires internet access and motivation, which may limit who can benefit.
