- Abstract
The article discusses the effects of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program with and without virtual professional support. The results show that there were no significant differences in the outcomes investigated between the groups. However, data analysis reveals that pulmonary rehabilitation had a significant clinical effect on forced vital capacity (FVC) and the distance covered in the six-minute walk test. Additionally, virtual support clinically enhanced the results related to the modified Medical Research Council scale and social aspects. A more precise data analysis and the use of a generalized mixed model are recommended to minimize biases and obtain more accurate measures of clinical effect.
