Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of our study is to assess the feasibility and benefits of the implementation of an interactive telemonitoring system for earlier detection of COPD exacerbations in a community cohort preventing further deterioration requiring hospital admissions.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Usual follow up

Group 1: To keep follow-up in their usual family practice/ pulmonology consultations

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Home telemonitoring

Group 2: To keep follow-up in their usual family practice/ pulmonology consultations and associate an interactive home telemonitoring system managed by the researchers.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Experimental

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients will be every two weeks monitored by the researchers' team, taking into consideration lung function, symptoms, physical activity, pulse oximetry, body temperature, need for relief medication and Sputum characteristics. Over the 18 months, they will be the target of health education interventions, 2 individual and 2 in group.
