From the registry
People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) experience distressing breathlessness and high health care utilisation. There is compelling evidence that pulmonary rehabilitation improves symptoms and reduces hospitalisation, but is delivered to \<10% of patients who would benefit. The investigators developed a low cost model of pulmonary rehabilitation that can be delivered entirely at home. The HomeBase model had equivalent outcomes to centre-based pulmonary rehabilitation in a phase II efficacy trial, with higher completion rates. The investigators hypothesise that a patient centred model offering a choice between home or centre-based pulmonary rehabilitation may increase program completion rates, with improved outcomes for patients and the health system. This is a cluster randomised implementation trial investigating whether offering a choice of home or centre-based pulmonary rehabilitation can reduce hospitalisation, improve pulmonary rehabilitation completion and enhance patient outcomes in people with COPD. 14 pulmonary rehabilitation programs located across…
