Lung Transplant G0 (LTGO): Improving Self-Management of Exercise After Lung Transplantation

The LTGO intervention consists of two phases: Phase 1. Intensive home-based exercise training and behavioral coaching via a telerehabilitation platform, Versatile and Integrated System for Tele-Rehabilitation (VISYTER)/two-way video communication system. Interactive intervention sessions will be delivered to the home via real time video conferencing (up to 12 sessions and a behavioral contract plan to prepare for phase 2); and Phase 2. Transition to self-management. Three telephone sessions (3 monthly counseling sessions) will be delivered over 12 weeks to provide behavioral coaching and exercise reinforcement

Enhanced Usual Care (EUC) will involve delivery of monthly newsletters (6 newsletters) on the topics of post-lung transplant management, including food safety, environmental health, flu, mental health, etc. and the provision of a self-monitoring device.
