肺康复（PR）被证明是慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPT）患者的最佳支持治疗。文献声称呼吸困难、疲劳、加重减少，功能能力和生活质量改善。基于家庭的PR比基于医院的康复更广泛，因为成本更低，减轻了照顾者的负担，但疗效通常受到质疑。疗效差可能是由于即使经过多年的家庭康复后，病情仍反复加重，生活质量差。远程康复是一种很好的康复措施，COPD患者在家中锻炼，而三级护理中心的专业知识远程监控康复过程。在印度，电话公关正处于萌芽状态。本综述将使读者了解远程康复的基本知识，并与其他可用的康复措施和证据进行比较。
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is proved to be best supportive management in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPT)) individuals. The literature claims the reduction of dyspnea, fatigue, exacerbations, and improved functional capacity and quality of life. Home-based PR is being prescribed widely than hospital-based rehab due to be less cost and ease of caregiver burden, but efficacy is usually questioned. The poor efficacy may be probably due to recurrent exacerbation and poor quality of life even after years of home rehabilitation. Telerehabilitation is an excellent rehab measure where the COPD patients exercise at his home, while expertise from the tertiary care centers monitors the rehab sessions remotely. In India, the tele-PR is at its budding state. This review shall enable the readers with the basics of telerehabilitation in comparison with the other available rehab measures and evidence in the management of COPD.
