Study Summary
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), also known as emphysema, is the leading cause of hospitalization for older adults in the U.S., and a leading cause of death. Although there is no cure for COPD, a program called pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), which combines exercise and education, can help decrease re-hospitalizations and improve patients' quality of life. Unfortunately, very few COPD Latino and African-American patients actually get PR. These patients are unlikely to get referrals or to be able to attend PR due to lack of insurance, lack of transportation, or lack of a PR center in their area. Telehealth is a way of using computers to deliver healthcare long-distance, eliminating the need for a patient to travel to receive care. By using telehealth for PR, the patient can exercise on a stationary bike in his or her home, while being supervised by videoconference by a respiratory therapist (RT). The RT can "see" the patient, and deliver education by videoconference, and the patient can "see" the RT, so the patient does not need to leave home to get PR.
Primary Outcome
The investigators will analyze the change in the rate of patients' rehospitalizations following completion of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR). COPD Hospital Readmission were measured for Intention to Treat (ITT), medically cleared, and those who sat on the bike at least once. Composite of COPD hospital readmission or death within 6 months of discharge using all available (complete) data, and no imputation of missing data. Without adherence added, offset term omitted in the logistic regression.
