My COPD
In addition to usual care, participants in the intervention group will initially meet with a physiotherapist to set up an individualized exercise program and physical activity plan. Participants will also receive a device instruction manual and a one hour of face-to-face training on how to use My COPD. The 12-week intervention is home-based, and self-managed with support from physiotherapist via My COPD. In addition to warm-up exercises, the exercise program comprises five exercises targeting major muscle groups, as well as, balance and aerobic exercise, to be conducted at least twice weekly. Via My COPD, the physiotherapists can follow activities and progress the exercise program, and the physiotherapist and the participants can contact each other. Throughout the intervention period, technical support will be available.
