Telerehabilitation Approaches in Pulmonary Rehabilitation Practices

Abstract

Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are a major public health concern globally, presenting significant social and economic challenges for individuals and communities. With the advancement of technology, modern rehabilitation approaches for CRDs have begun to include telerehabilitation applications. Telerehabilitation approaches in pulmonary rehabilitation are crucial for maintaining treatment continuity and enhancing participation in CRDs, which are characterized by a significant disease burden and a requirement for long-term rehabilitation. While there are studies examining the application of telerehabilitation in pulmonary rehabilitation for respiratory diseases, the majority of these studies focus on a single disease. Research addressing different telerehabilitation methods across various chronic respiratory conditions is limited. This article aims to summarize the most current approaches to telerehabilitation for chronic respiratory diseases.
